About The Artwork
My Old Clothes series was made over a period of perhaps five years. Friends gave me clothing they found stored in an attic, perhaps a dress worn long ago by a favorite aunt or grandmother; I used my own clothing, too. My daughter donned them and patiently posed with her lovely face disguised. The images are meant to evoke feelings ranging from loss to joy. When viewed as a group, their individual power intensifies. The hoop draped over Lisa in this image came from a red, floor-length prom gown worn by a good friend to a high school dance.

United States
With the exception of two years in Arizona, I have lived in NY state. My serious work in photography started after a trip to Orkney, Scotland, where I was hampered by a broken lens and a serious lack of expertise. While on a ferry during gale-force winds, I tried in vain to photograph the walls of water coming at us. When I returned home I began taking lessons in photography. Initially I worked on specific projects, such as dreams. Recently I have done street photography when visiting cities including Edinburgh, Glasgow, and London. My cameras include a Mintolta X700, a Holga, and the D200 Nikon. Currently my work is carried by Trevillion.
