About

I received a BFA in Photography from Rochester Institute of Technology in 1977 and practiced fine art photography for a decade before turning toward other pursuits and life work. Reconnecting with the camera another decade later, I gradually shifted from film to digital technology as it matured, and I’ve been working in a dedicated way since 2014.

I photograph primarily where I live, dividing my time between Mexico and Cape Cod. In titling the series of Mexican photographs presented here, I’ve chosen to use the Spanish words in place of English, as the Spanish is more culturally specific and innately descriptive. Thus Pueblo for Town, Campo for Countryside, Panteón for Cemetery, and Jaripeo for Rodeo.

I use a monochrome ink set (Piezography) for digital pigment prints, all of which are printed on rag photo paper, 13x19 and larger. In 2019, I also began working in polymer photogravure, which uses photopolymer plates and is far less toxic than traditional photogravure, a technique that utilizes copper plates and dates to the early days of photography. The Clay series here is done in polymer photogravure (A4 plate), an edition of 5 printed with an etching press on 15x22 rag paper, using traditional etching ink.
