For five decades, I journeyed through the evolving world of photography, from the crisp edges of realism to the fluid contours of abstraction. Starting with the classic camera, I captured life’s straightforward beauty but grew along with the technological tide, learning and embracing each new tool and technique.
Through the years, as darkrooms gave way to digital screens, I shifted focus from the explicit to the implicit, finding a passion for the abstract. Each photograph became less about what was seen and more about what was felt, transforming my work from mere representation to emotive expression.
Today, after 50 years of progress and persistent experimentation with both skill and technology, my work speaks to the power of adaptability and the quest for artistic growth.
