Landscapes

Polaroid Manipulation

These images are samples from some of my portfolios. Please contact me if you are interested in seeing other images. I hand-embellish each piece and produce small editions of one-of-a-kind prints. The size of each piece is made to order. 

I have created a series of portfolios that impressionistically convey quiet landscapes, floral still lifes, structures, vehicles, wardrobe items, Sacramento icons, and cultural artifacts.  Using a Polariod SX-70 camera, with Time-Zero film, I physically manipulate or “smoosh” my photographs during the first few hours into ethereal images. My final works start as enlarged archival prints. I then apply color by hand to each piece using acrylic paints, pastels, watercolors, and colored pencils to produce small editions of one-of-a-kind prints. The size of each piece is made to order.
