"Lifescapes‪"‬

My "LIFESCAPES", my digital collage pieces are quite exciting for me. There’s such freedom in being able to photograph exactly what I find aesthetically appealing and then to be able to combine or collage these photos back in the studio in Adobe Photoshop. I am then able to manipulate these photos, adjusting the image, colors, values, intensities, etc. just as I do when painting.“



“This new medium “digital collage” allows me to piece together ideas, concepts, visual elements, pieces of experience and memories rather than just bits of paper and is perfect for me to be able to put to paper my thoughts, ideas, and messages.” The first photos and stories are from a Camping Trip with my neighbors to the California Desert, the rest are from several trips to Mexico (Acapulco, Puerto Vallarta and San Miguel de Allende) and to Spain and Italy.
