Piece description from the artist
Curved lines in the architecture of the Milwaukee Art Museum in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The artwork in the museum is breathtaking, but the building itself is a work of art. I could spend hours walking around the interior and exterior of the structure and not even look at what is hanging on the walls. This building is that beautiful.
As Arthur Erickson said, "Great buildings that move the spirit have always been rare. In every case they are unique, poetic, products of the heart." This building is certainly unique, poetic and sensual. Do yourself a favor, if you are ever near Milwaukee, you have got to go visit the art museum.
Emotion. Mood. Feelings. This is what I capture through my photographs. Whether it is landscapes, architectural elements, still life, or macros – it is a very personal journey as my own fears, triumphs, beliefs, and shortcomings are exposed with each photo.
Much of what I shoot is done spontaneously without preconceived thought or plan. I let what is around me dictate what is photographed.
And the shooting is only the first step – a jumping off point. I take the raw images and create what I see in my mind’s eye. Coaxing out textures present in the shot – sometimes adding them. Enhancing the contrast of light and dark to create the mood and emotions I felt and feel. In the end, it’s all about listening to my heart and mind and creating a visual representation of what I feel the moment the shutter is released.
I'm a native Texan currently living in Milwaukee, Wisconsin with my lovely wife and son.
