Biography
I live in Fairfield Ohio and have been in the Cincinnati area my entire life. I am married, with three grown children. I spend time working with the handicapped children in the Fairfield school district. I enjoy gardening, scrapbooking, and traveling throughout the world. I collect Steiff and Boyds bears.
I have enjoyed taking pictures since my teen years. Just in the past few years have I really begun to take it seriously. I studied photography for one year from a local photographer, who really helped me develop a professional eye for photography.
My work was on display in art shows at the Fairfield Community Center in 2010 , 2011, 2012 and 21013 and the Hyde Park Art Show in 2012. My pieces, Window of Dreams won Best of Show in the 2012 and Tunnel Vision won Best of Show in 2013 at the Fairfield Community Art Show. I have sold many pieces over the past few years.
Several of my pictures have been auctioned at local charity fundraisers. I also have many pieces available for purchase, on display in an art gallery in Marathon Florida.
I mostly enjoy photographing flowers and landscapes using the HDR (High Dynamic Range) technique. HDR pictures are comprised of three images taken at different and then combined to get the maximum color
and lighting. HDR pictures have vivid colors and high lights. When printed on photo paper they look more like a traditional photograph but, when printed on canvas they have the appearance of a painting.
