The name “Photographic Equivalents” is based on the latter works of Alfred Stieglitz (credited with discovering Ansel Adams and with gaining legitimacy for Photography as an Art Form…as well as marrying Georgia O’Keefe). In refining his photographic art to the simplest essence, the ultimate subtlety, he arrived at black and white photos of cloud wisps, which he termed “Equivalents”. Many of my background effects include clouds. I have always been fascinated with close ups of Nature, especially untouched by mankind, in it’s natural state.
 

My current work is still in its infancy. Digital acquisition and manipulation is young…artistic expression is ancient. A thousand years ago I would have been pecking at stone walls. Today I have the latest digital cameras, software and printers, but I’m still drawn to expressing my Nature.
I currently have my work displayed and available for purchase on several web sites including: Winenart movement in Las Vegas and www.proppercollection.com

I recently had a gallery show in Las Vegas at the “Arts Factory” in the “Jennifer Main Gallery” that ran from October through November of 2006 and was a featured stop in the “First Friday” events in the arts district in Las Vegas.

I regularly work in the film and television industry but continue to work in still photography shooting portraits and copy work for Giclée prints for many prominent artists. My new printer (Epson Stylus Pro 7800) allows me 24 inches in width and allows printing on thick media including watercolor paper & canvas with archival inks.

My future plans are to expand my gallery showings and continue my exploration of the digital realm.
