"Between Water and Rails" is an homage to my birthplace - the Gulf Coast of Mississippi. There, I lived one block from the beach and one block from the railroad tracks. As a young boy, these locations provided me with countless adventures, a keen sense of my habitat, and - most importantly - a source for the images I utilize today as a man.

I depict the future in order to speak about the present; not to implicate technology, but instead question the ever more complicated and intelligent environments humans have been constructing for themselves and the ideologies which have evolved parallel to them.

During the last few years I have been working on a series of reflections in water. I think of the resulting images as "water paintings," a fusion of water and light. They offer ever-changing abstractions, shimmering shadows, translucent color, rich layering and the opportunity to see something in a new way.

Salk Institute in San Diego, CA. Jonas Salk, inventor of the polio vaccine asked architect Louis Kahn to build an institute where Picasso would have liked to work as a scientist. A true pilgrimage place for scientists around the world. A beautiful marriage between the geniuses in art and science.

Bus Stop II is part of a larger body of work called "Other Places." All of the photographs in this series are of buildings, of one sort or another. Each odd building finds itself in a surreal landscape where nature is monsterous.

I strive to make relevant, memorable American images that make people think. I am interested in reflecting the mood and feeling of our era. My sometimes voyeuristic, broken-narrative compositions reflect America's channel-changing attention span and state of mind. I strive for ambiquity to increase the number of viewer interpretations.

"Statehouse, Annapolis" is from an ongoing series, Shadowing History, which posits that history is both the hard reality of fact and the constantly shifting interpretation of that reality.

This print is from a recent series emphasizing motion, photographed while I am moving either in a car, a subway, or a bicycle, etc. These works comment on the high-speed lives most of us lead and continue my ongoing explorations with color, form and surface.

I create my portraits using a two-way mirror. I observe my subjects. My subjects observe only themselves. In the resultant photographs, I see the human struggle between self and other, between within and without.

My current work focuses on the ideas of hidden complexities and relationships existing beyond our human senses and perceptions. It is not intended to reveal truth that can be verified by science or mathematics, but instead depict and investigation of the visual world through the eyes of an artist.

This is one of a series which pairs images of the human body with those of a variety of zoological specimens. The artist's intention is to evoke a sense of empathetic connection between Homo Sapiens and other species and remind us of our mutual vulnerabilities in a rapidly changing global environment.

"Shadows of the Night" is a print from the City at Night portfolio. The photography deals with interesting forms and shadows, created by various urban lighting. The storyline reflects the impact of man on his environment. In this case, graffiti has been covered by a department of the municipal government, providing a camouflaged war-like appearance to the urban landscape.
