Art work inspiration comes from photography. Sometimes an image has a great color palette and working with programs such as Adobe PhotoShop I use editing tools to enhance a line or pattern. That process of tweaking is an integral creative process because it employs the source file as a starting point and allows me to play with shapes, lines and color to form a finished image that is unique. The abstract image is completed when the results of color correction, transforming and digital painting change the 'straight' photo to something other that what it appeared to be. I like abstractions because they remind me of dreams. They can't really be defined because every viewer will have their own interpretation.
Flora photography has always been a source of inspiration. When I photograph a living thing I like to think I'm capturing the essence of it. How light reflects off a petal or how a line shows geometry. Through photography I appreciate all things around me living and inanimate. Everything occupies space and while some things represent static and others are living each thing is worth noting for itself. I like to imagine the hands that may have constructed something inanimate and ferret out the life that went on before me.
