Hi, thank you for visiting my page.
I opened a page on the site for a place to show my work and hopefully have others visit and like what I do. At the start I was not certain, or even knew, what my pictures represented in terms of what I wanted to express but after more work and looking back it is becoming clearer.
I have a form of epilepsy which causes amnesia and I only generally hold memories for no longer than 3-4 months. With photographic art I can capture moments, feelings, or past experience that without I would be unable to recollect. The images I make both give me an expessive outlet and a reference for my life in general.
The meaning comes out subconsciously I suppose but it all starts with a photo. I'm mostly drawn to floral or nature based photography and find natural beauty to be universally understood. I work with the shot trying to bring out a symbolic/emotive expression through it's subject using color, composition, tones, and shadows with digital adjustments and filters.
I don't post sizes for the products but if you would like I could do so if asked without problem.
Thanks again, Michael
