In States of Grace, I seek serenity in ephemeral, organic forms, illuminating glimpses of beauty to silence chaos. I capture the fleeting movement of light and form that is often overlooked, preserving that mystical moment that stills time for me. Photographing intuitively - what i feel, as much as what i see - and informed by a background in oil painting and art history, I portray a personal interpretation by layering the images with color and texture, to balance the real and the imagined. These sensual images are printed digitally with archival pigment ink on vellum. White gold or silver leaf is applied on verso, creating a luminous surface and suffusing the subjects with the implied spirituality and sanctity of the precious metals. Within the limited edition, the prints may differ in color or texture, and, as the effect of gilding inherently varies, each of the limited edition prints is unique.
