TITLE: The Magic of Light and Shadow

Strong light, and the shaped shadows created by it, are really enjoyable to capture with my camera. Often the resulting shapes have no relation to the actual surface where the light shines, and that for me is the “magic” part of the process!

I was born in a small country town near Pittsburgh, PA, where I went to university and studied painting and sculpture. To be a painter was my dream! For several years I lived in Papua New Guinea and then moved to Sydney, Australia. In both places I worked with clay, mostly high-fired white earthenware, creating minimalist hand built forms. Eventually I returned to the U.S., first to New York City, and then to Chicago where I now live. I’ve come full circle and returned to my first love of painting, but now I paint with light!
