PEOPLE OFTEN ASK ME IF MY PHOTOGRAPHS ARE PAINTINGS. ACHIEVING A PAINTERLY EFFECT IN A PHOTO PLEASES ME. I WOULD NOT BE SO PLEASED IF THEY ASKED IF MY PAINTINGS WERE PHOTOGRAPHS, AS I LIKE PAINTINGS THAT DELIVER PAINTERLY ASPECTS BEYOND THE PHOTOGRAPHIC SCOPE, SUCH AS AN ATTENTION TO THE RELIEF OF THE PAINT ITSELF, AND TO THE DIRECTION OF THE STROKE OF THE BRUSH.
THE ATTITUDE OF THE PUBLIC CONTINUES TO EVOLVE IN VIEWING PHOTOGRAPHY AS ART, AND I CONTINUE TO EVOLVE IN BOTH GENRES, OFTEN REQUIRING LABOR OF AN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT NATURE, PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY. IN PHOTOGRAPHY, I AM MORE OFTEN DIRECTED EXTERNALLY IN A DISCOVERY OF THE GREAT OUTDOORS, NAVIGATING PHYSICAL TERRAINS WITH DEXTERITY TO GET THE BEST SHOT. IN PAINTING, FROM A SINGULAR POSITION, MY INTERNAL CURIOSITY FOCUSES MY INTENT ON THE FINAL COLOR, SIZE, DIRECTION AND PRESSURE OF EACH BRUSHSTROKE. ABSTRACTION IN PHOTOGRAPHY HAS BECOME WIDESPREAD, BUT I PREFER THE PLASTIC QUALITIES OF THE PAINT ITSELF TO THE FLATNESS OF THE PHOTOGRAPHIC PAPER IN ABSTRACT WORKS.
