the artist |
When I was in my twenties, a friend taught
me to take pictures with an old Wardflex. Some of my best work was produced
during those early years. The work that you see here spans more than
25 years since. |
I was born in Iowa during the war years, to a tall,
handsome soldier and a reserved lady with a pretty voice.
My parents were very poor but not without talent. My greatest joy as
a child was singing. |
I have two beautiful daughters of whom I am enormously proud. They
have been the shining subjects of some of my best photographs.
|
It was not until about the year 2000 that I was emboldened to think that I
might take my place amongst other professionals in the arena. The vision
having begun, it is gathering momentum, and I am grateful to
anyone who ever said a kind or encouraging word to me. They are every bit a gift
from God, as the spark they fanned into life. |
