My work is rooted in striving for technical perfection, but it's also my intention that the images transcend the technical and create a window into another reality. This show is composed of very large, close up images of flowers, printed on canvas. What attracts me to flowers is the incredible number of layers one can perceive - color, texture, shape, depth.
I use a large format printer to print all of my own work which gives me great control over the process. All of these are very large - up to 40x60". By taking a small subject and making it so large, it's still recognizable, but also becomes something entirely different. The magnification allows the viewer to step into the flower.
