Even Though I Didn't Get A Business

Today A Lot Of Things Are So Celebrity-oriented; It's Only Because It's Celebrity And The Photograph Is Lost. To Me It's Important To Have An Image That Is A Photograph First, Not About Necessarily Who That Person Is.

I Abstract It In My Photographs: I Like Large Planes And Spaces, Areas Of Texture And Light, Like Deserts Or Oceans Or Monumental Places.

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'm Pretty Selective. I Generally Edit The Contact Sheets And Then Do Work Prints. Because I Have My Own Lab And Printers, I Can Afford The Luxury Of Going Through The Contact Sheets For Black-and-white, Making Up Work Prints, Seeing Them Big, And Honing Them Down.
