MANIPULATED PHOTOS

For years I enjoyed collaging photographs, taking infinate pains to carefully cutout images and seamlessly place them into an image. In the darkroom I continued integrating diverse images onto one piece of paper, often spending hours inhaling chemicals and wasting sheets of paper until I obtained the desired results. Discovering PhotoShop and its amazing and endless abilities just fueled my passion for creating collaged images. The possibilities are endless and I happily continue to play with images. Although I no longer work in the darkroom between an X-Acto knife, a gluestick, a scanner, a camera and some software I find the hours flying by as new images emerge.
