All the work selected for this submission is rooted in photography and derived from natural and manmade forms. In each instance, only a portion of the original image remains. A portion that exemplifies essential characteristics of the subject. By isolating them or dissecting and reassembling them, I use the colors, textures and shapes found in an image as an inspiration and transform them into something otherwise unimagined. An image where the sum of the parts is much different then the whole.
