Seaside Dreaming, Grandeur

At the heart of my Seaside Dreaming work are the ideas of reminiscence, romance, timelessness and serenity. What better a subject than a seascape vista - constantly and dramatically changing while never changing.

Through my process, I distill moments of grandeur, time, light and color into a single panoramic view - inspired by the same motivation that would make us stop to take in a grand view that captured our attention and tuned out the world around us.

Employing a contemporary mix of multiple photographic exposures, digital imaging and print methods, I produce the images in a way that reference classical paintings that evoke the qualities I am looking for. The resulting images are heat and pressure fused to a satin aluminum surface with a luster that adds a sensuous depth and dimensionality. The surfaces react interactively with ambient light - like the changing light of day.
