Fine Art
My works blur the line between photography and painting through imagery, technique, and printing methods. Digital manipulation obscures the photographic origins of the image, while the use of pigment-based chromium inks and high quality cotton rag photo paper gives the appearance of a pencil drawing or watercolour. My work features vibrant colours and multilayered images blended into composites that transcend the originals.

The result is a startlingly evocative experience for the viewer.” – Maggie Shane, buyer
Chromium ink prints
All my artworks are printed with chromium inks on 100% cotton, acid-
Unlike conventional colour photographs that fade and turn green with age, chromium ink prints will not fade or change colour for years to come, anywhere from 100 to 300 years depending on the paper and ink combination as well as storage and display conditions. Chromium inks use pigments like those in artists’ paints; these pigments are more stable and long-
