A high-contrast, black and white photograph of long, thin aquatic grass swaying on the surface of dark, rippling water. The grass appears as delicate, luminous white strands that flow diagonally from the bottom left toward the upper right. Light catches the edges of the water's surface ripples and the submerged blades, creating a textured, ethereal effect against the deep, shadowy depths of the water. The composition is moody and abstract, emphasizing movement and the play of light on organic forms.

A large, stylized sculpture of a human head in profile dominates the left foreground. The sculpture is vibrant purple with teal, textured hair and dark blue lips, featuring a wide, staring eye. It stands on a patch of green grass. In the background, the scene is heavily shadowed, featuring a large tree and a brick wall with a "No Fly Tipping" sign. To the right, a person sits in deep shadow on a park bench, appearing small in comparison to the oversized sculpture. The composition uses high contrast and dramatic lighting, creating a surreal and slightly moody urban atmosphere.

So glad you liked the new site, Tom! Thanks for stopping by. I recently switched over to Squarespace and it’s made such a difference in how I showcase my work compared to the old days. Highly recommend going the custom route! πŸ“·βœ¨

A high-contrast, black and white photograph of Brutalist architecture. In the foreground, a long, two-story rectangular building features a grid of recessed windows. Behind it, two massive, windowless concrete towers rise toward a pale, overcast sky. The concrete surfaces are weathered with vertical staining and textures. The composition is stark and geometric, emphasizing the heavy, monolithic feel of the structures. A small bird is visible in flight against the expansive sky to the right of the towers.

A close-up, shallow depth-of-field photograph of two vibrant purple thistles flowers against a soft, desaturated grey background. The flower in the foreground is in sharp focus, showing a dark, textured, pinecone-shaped base topped with delicate, spindly purple petals reaching upward. Its green stem and narrow leaves are visible below. A second flower stands in the background to the left, rendered in a soft, hazy blur. The composition is minimalist and serene, emphasizing the contrast between the saturated violet of the blooms and the muted, neutral backdrop.
