Coming From California And Growing Up Where

It's Always More Comforting To Know That In Any Given Corner Of Any Room Or Any Location You're On, You Can Make A Photograph That You'll Appreciate.

I Always Enjoyed Art History Because, Growing Up In California, My Exposure Was Limited, And It Was A New Experience. To Learn The History Of Art Opened Up Certain Things To Me, Made Me See. It Intrigued Me.

I Did Grow Up Next Door To Steve Mcqueen, Who Was A Very Famous Movie Star At The Time, But As A Kid It Didn't Impress Me. We Always Had Great Fun With Him. He Would Take Us Out On Sundays On His Motorcycles, Riding Around In The Desert; He Was Like A Second Father.

For Me, The Most Important Thing I Learned Was Just Honing My Eye. I Think I Had A Good Eye.

Within Two Hours Of Where I Live, You Have Mountains And Desert As Location. I Like The Natural Elements That Abstract Into Light, Texture, Shape And Shadow.
