My parents are both sculptors, painters, jewelers, and the homes they made for us were filled with art and music. From early childhood my mother provided me with countless opportunities to explore, learn and create and taught me to value my own self-expression. My father designed and built his own house in the high-tech style and taught me to appreciate lines, light, textures, surfaces.
In my early teens, I began drawing a lot and was particularly inspired by surrealism and abstract art. In high school, I studied with a New York street photographer who taught students how to shoot, develop, print, and mount black and white pictures of their families and friends. Student photographs eventually helped this program secure grants from both The San Francisco Education Fund and the San Francisco Foundation.
About Me
Get in Touch
With the advent of digital photography, I began capturing images of the scenery that I encountered around San Francisco including sunrises, clouds, the Bay Bridge, streetcar wires, buildings as well as many various surfaces and textures.
In my current work I create images of familiar sights around the San Francisco bay area in such a way that surprise and evoke the viewer to ask, “what am I looking at?” Through my images, I hope to share the view of the world as I see it: a world filled with amazing and unexpected beauty.
