House on a Hill, Rome There’s something about this photo that reminds me of Arbus’s similarly titled photo – A House on a Hill, Hollywood. It’s one of my two favorite photos of hers (the other being the Disneyland castle), and the dialogue generally surrounding these photos is how atypical […]
My Art
Ponte Vecchio, Florence I had one of the most wonderful, most eye-opening experiences about a week ago. As many of you know I sell my work on Etsy – a great place to find handmade work by artists & crafters (if you didn’t know that, you should pop on over […]
Gondola Detail, Venice My gondola detail is featured on a treasury at Etsy put together by Simply Suzula. The treasury is full of dragons and has some pretty cool artwork, so go check it out.
I just love it when people look at my work and that is the first (or second) line out of their mouth. As if my camera jumped out of my hand, ran back down the street, centered the scene perfectly, focused and snapped the shot, noting that it didn’t need […]
After many years of procrastination I have finally taken the first step toward getting an online shop up on this site. I’ve listed my photos on Etsy because it’s easier than building my own storefront (at least for now), plus I get a lot of extra eyeballs, and you get […]

Man Ray was and is by far one of my favorite influences. While enjoying a glass of wine and a good book on the porch the other day, I stumbled upon something I’d been looking for… a more abstract way to show spirits. What I was doing previously is quite […]
I wish I had the original story for this set of images. Devaney was an art history professor that I loathed. She taught a freshman class that was a survey of “modern” art. Devaney fancied herself a formalist, and therefore, didn’t have to tell us anything interesting about the meaning […]
Many times people ask me where the interest in voodoo came from. It was born from a period much like the one I’m in now. My creative mind was stale — I had no thoughts, no originality, no will to produce or create anything. For 4 or 5 weeks I […]
