Artist Statement:
“The images in this show all have something to do with my iPhone 4s … they were either taken with the camera in the phone or with my Nikon d7000 dSLR. My iPhone is a small portable darkroom. Using a variety of photo-editing apps* on my iPhone, I can get creative with filters and post-processing. Since I always have my iPhone with me, I am able to capture more of the things that fascinate me, like symmetry, light, color, most things that are old such as architecture and everyday objects, and things that remind me of something else. After being edited on my iPhone, the image files are transferred to my computer and then printed on a wide-format fine art digital printer using archival inks and papers.
*apps are found in Apple’s iTunes store online and there are a multitude that relate to photography. Some are useless, but most are fun, and a large number are wonderful! With a wide range of apps installed on my iPhone, I am able to create moody color images, atmospheric landscapes, painterly portraits, vintage looking architecture, images in black and white … whatever my mind can conceive or that I find by chance. (Any photos taken wih my Nikon dSLR camera were uploaded onto my iPhone and then also post-processed on my iPhone)
Each image is part of an edition of 20 prints … each print is numbered and signed when it is framed and matted … to be delivered by the end of the show (after May 4th).”
