Although the master sculptor’s medium was stone, where the suggested intention was to chisel away solid mass, Michelangelo’s quote below, embodies the underlying metaphor for my process in revealing my manifestation as WHH Photo Art. As a photoartist, this discovery process begins with an intention of content, as opposed to form. In a sense then form follows function. I am interested more in asking the questions, “what story do I wish to tell?” or “what emotions am I wanting to emote?”.

“I saw the Angel in the marble and I carved until I set him Free”  -Michelangelo

The Theme Collection, is perhaps the longtime bread and butter of the work I do. This collection is is divided into the three sub-categories of Nature, Structure, and Muse. Being a Colorado mountain resident, river guide/outfitter and outdoor enthusiast most of my life, I have discovered my art of Nature through a lens and various softwares. As a former architect and current sculptor, I have an affinity for the positive/negative space aspects of man made Structure coupled with the architectural design play of textures and shapes. The Muse Collection is inspired by an exploration into an unorthodox artful style of “people photo-art” that includes fashion modeling, shamanism and staging the fantastical for capture..
