Artist Statement:
My current passion is an
alternative photographic
technique called Polaroid
transfers. I have become a
devotee of the transfer
process because I like the
soft focus, painterly
qualities of the images. I
think the major strength of
the polaroid process is that
it is fast art. One transfer
only takes about five minutes
from start to finish. I have
a short attention span, so I
like to view my art right
away.

I am happy to announce that
one of my photos has been
accepted to be exhibited in
the Smithsonian Museum for the
month of July 2007. You can

Why Did You Become An Artist
 
Your Personal Biography My current passion is an alternative photographic process called Polaroid transfers. Each transfer is hand-made by the photographer using specific materials and equipment to achieve a desired effect. A transparency is projected on to professional Polaroid print film and as development begins, the print and chemicals are prematurely separated. The image is transferred on to dampened watercolor paper for a unique image which has a dated, artistic photo-painting appearance. Exposure, pressure, time, paper and other variables make each print an original mono-print.

I am fascinated by the unpredictability of Polaroid transfers and I love the freedom of experimentation and “lucky mistakes.” I like the uniqueness of each piece and the painterly quality of the finished transfer. The flexibility and mobility of this photographic medium lends itself to spontaneous exploration. The added possibility of reworking my images using watercolors or pastel pencils , adds another dimension to this alternative printing process.
