When
the weather is bad, I play in my studio which is stocked with props. We encourage our subjects to bring their favorite
costume and a playful attitude, and to have fun in front of the camera. |
Even as a child, my favorite pastime was drawing or sketching on any piece of paper I could get my hands on. My love of art developed into a career in the commercial art field-- fresh out of school-- in the Art Department of the Times Herald in Washington, DC. By 1952 I was working in the aerospace industry illustrating the burgeoning effort to launch into space. By 1964 I decided to leave the art business for something more secure while raising my family. When I retired in 1992, I couldn't wait to go back to my first love---art. But my hands were no longer steady with brush and pencil, so I took up my camera and began to capture my images with lens and film. I didn't even hesitate when the digital boom came along--I went digital, bought a computer, and learned how to use Photoshop. Now I am truly back in the business of creating the images that are in my imagination and I love it! It's just like being back in the art business. My wife is a writer, and
together we travel and freelance stories for
magazines. It has been genuinely rewarding and we have met many
interesting people and had a lot of fun adventures along the way.
