The Ice Man

This is a photo of two explorers that have stumbled across a giant figure frozen in the ice. I photograph legos and try to make scenes that are inaccesible orcannot be made in the larger world. To make this photo, I froze a giant lego figure in a container in my freezer. Then, I took a patterned sheet, the frozen lego giant, and two lego mini-figures and set them up in a closet. I added a color light and put the sheet under the ice to make the environment look like a cave. Then, I took the photo.

tunnel vision

I like to capture ordinary, every day things but in a way that allows people to see the beauty in them. In other words, I like to capture the world in a natural, unstaged way by using angles, lighting, framing techniques, and focus to accentuate the unique characteristics of the object pr scene. This picture was no exception; it is a ceiling above a busy airport shuttle that wasn't designed to be looked at like a piece of art. I love the symmetry in the architecture, the repeating lines in the ceiling, and the reflection of the light on the hand rail.

Oranges Etc.

Using copics, color pencils, and a white gel pen, I explored the similarities between clocks, gears, and oranges since all are circular, radial, sector based objects.

Open Wide

I've loved and have collected paper folding fans for a long time now and thought it would be fun to try and make one that was not only cool to look at, but also functional.
