Hope Floats Away

I'm a digital artist who loves creating personal artworks with an emphasis in digital composition which encompasses photo manipulation and montage, with an occasional mixture of a variety of traditional techniques that I’m constantly exploring and developing. My art is based on photographs that go through a heavy process of transformation, assemblage and detail that puts them closer to a pictorial expression. I like to capture the surreal beauty of strange objects, places and phrases in dream-like emotive images that speak to the human subconscious making a statement about the conundrum of the human predicament. I have been involved in art, design, publishing, prepress, printing and web development for 17 years and I have filled many roles such as a graphic designer, concept artist, art director, creative director, DTP operator, production artist and retoucher.
