I enjoy black and white photography because it tends to reduce the subject to an essence.  It helps us to immediately recognize what is truly important in the image.

In my etchings I try to use a very subtle effect and gradation of textures with the value of black and white.  I etch geometrical shapes and still life.

Art is an important part of life. It can be striking, beautiful, controversial and interesting, but sometimes it just doesn’t make sense at all. I guess we all have to seek out our own idea of artistic beauty and form.
