Biography
I became a Digital Artist late in life. Up until November, 1998, I was a
non-digital photographer, and quite proud of that fact. Then I got my
first computer, and shortly after that, Photoshop. I was still
intending to stick to conventional photography, then I made a "fatal
mistake." I decided to explore Photoshop. In the image menu, under
"adjust," I found the command "Posterize." I was familiar with
posterization, so I tried it out on a photo of mine of the Brooklyn
Bridge. This was one click of the mouse that changed my life. After
that, I checked out all the filters, did the tutorials, and took a
couple of courses on Photoshop. My transformation was complete, I was
no longer "defiantly anti-digital," I had become "born-again digital."
Since this time I've created countless digital images (I don't know
how many, I lost count a long time ago); put my digital work into
several art galleries in Rochester, N.Y., and in
the end of 2001, Pygoya invited me to include my image, Downtown USA,
in the EHCC International Cyberart Exhibition in Hawaii; and then that
exhibit made a world tour. To this day, I continue to create digital
art, and I've diversified from just Photography into Graphic Design, and
Web Design, becoming a Creative Professional.
