ARTIST STATEMENT
As a writer-photographer my perspective on fine art photography is that it’s the visual equivalent of creative nonfiction. In both genres the artist approaches reality from a particular direction and distance, and attention to details is extremely important. But I differ from many artists in both fields, in that I normally don’t try to force my audience to look at one specific detail at the expense of others. I prefer to present the whole, intricate picture, be it large or small, and let the audience decide for themselves what to pay attention to.
