the good old world:
all photos taken in Mississippi, 2005, and printed on hand applied liquid silver emulsion.

these are 8×8 polymer photogravures, editions of 12.
gnossiennes:
This is one of Erik Satie’s brilliantly made-up titles for his equally original piano compositions. The word gnosis is a good place to start if you are interested in its possible meanings.
These images are 10×10 wet collodion tintypes, editions of 5
botanica:
I nearly always feel that my work is ahead of my ability to understand it. After over ten years of working on this project, I have come to realize that it is an inner landscape I am capturing, not the outer.
Originally printed as silver gelatin, I am now reprinting these images as 8×8 polymer photogravures, chine-collé on mulberry paper, editions of 12.
dogscapes:
One of my great loves is photographing dogs. The bigger the camera, the harder it is! These images are available as polymer photogravure prints as well.
animal, whimsical, liminal:
There is so much joy to be had, so many populations beyond humankind to be witnessed, so many weird little stories. This is a wild ride through years and years of disordered fun — kind of like pulling a box of family photos out from under the bed. Contact me for print information.
