TRIBAL TOTEMS

These are portraits of the spirits that live at the interface of this world and another. Portraits of the Earth Goddess, and while beautiful, she is not pleased with us. These are reflections of our own dualistic psyche, reflecting our good side and a side that is not so good. When you change your point of view, you see things differently.

This Photographic passion began when I awoke one morning facing an alpine lake in Banff, BC. The face of Mother Nature beckoned for her portrait. She doesn;t stay around long enough to pose. Her fleeting moments will never be seen again. I can't say these faces talk to me but I sure talk to them. I say hello, then thank them for coming to my photographic session. The images are not manipulated in any way. They straight from nature to camera to print. Every time you look at these you'll see something different.

My body of work consists of the above images, 3D Lenticular photos, ceramics, and 3D printing
