Where to buy my art

d'ART - The Internet Art Database


There is so much to see all around us and most don't see much of anything. If I accomplish nothing else in life, I'd like to help people become aware of their world, no matter where it is and what it looks like. Just so they take the time to notice and feel the moment, be it happy or sad, angry or glad. One person's favorite view is another's nightmare. Capturing light is a never-ending experiment, film and darkroom hold endless possibilities. Now, with digital, a complete new realm of exploration presents itself! I feel like I'm starting all over again, but with an old friend in new clothes.

alternative process photography - done in the darkroom

These images were produced with several hours of actual darkroom work, using internegatives and color filter packs and black and white negatives - except for one image, Clown Murder which was digitally processed. These images are provided as examples of the variety of ways an image can be printed. If you are interested in a memory book for any special occassion, such as a birthday, wedding, or anniversary - a memory book with alternative process images will be a keepsake for generations to come.
