“Art is not what you see, but what you make others see.”
— Edgar Degas
Not surprisingly, I’ve also integrated the grid into my digital photography.
I can trace my photo roots back to my high school darkroom days. While I enjoyed some success at that time, I somehow both wanted more and was also somewhat discouraged. I never really felt comfortable with stop baths, f-stops… oh just stop! It wasn’t until I purchased my first digital camera (a Nikon CoolPix 800) and taught myself to use Photoshop that I was finally able to concentrate on the creative possibilities of photography, not be limited by the technical obstacles.
Below are some samples from several of the series I have worked on and places I’ve visited.
