On April 1st 2004, a limited edition of 21, 11" X 14" digital cibachrome prints of Flower 01, were released.


ABOUT THE IMAGE
Flower 01 was created in 2003 using Photoshop to develop techniques that resembled collage and painting. An extensive project, examining the practice of landscape and still life in contemproary art today, was modeled on this first image.

ABOUT THE PROJECT
The computer and Photoshop are my sole mediums to create images that are the basis for three ongoing series of works -- Planets, Islands, and Still Lifes. Employing techniques that resemble collage and painting by "borrowing" pixels of color from images found on the Internet using search engines, I entirely absent my use of the camera from the artistic process. My photographs honor Nature while celebrating Technology, an important concern for me in an age when humans are struggling to find a balance with the planet that sustains them. Through my art, I have found a way to showcase Nature's all-encompassing beauty while at the same time expressing my genuine concern for its preservation and safety.
