Being around so many creative artists, I feel drawn to exploring with different media, not just photography.
Sometimes exploring means a journey inward instead of to another continent. A dream, a vision, a painting, can become the passport stamp. Exploring can be traveling to Greece with Jungian< therapist and dream tender JoHanna McNamee and going on an inner journey of dreams and visions.
Exploring means painting with abandon or making a clay mask on a hot summer day. Exploring means combining photographs, paints, fresco to create an image.
Here are some still-wet experiments with different media such as gel emulsion transfer, fresco, painting, and clay, using photographs and Photoshop as a basis. Exploring can also mean going to the edge of our known understandings. An example is “The Next Level of Living,” a short video about a man dying of a malignant brain tumor and how it transformed him, his family, and friends.
Currently I’m exploring audio portraits about enduring relationships.
I have galleries of mixed media images called Alternatives: Mixed Media.
Also, check out the work of mixed-media artist Peggy Doig.
