Artist Statement:
As a commercial photographer
for 38 years, I have always
enjoyed photographing “for
myself”, since it is in the
fine arts area that I can
interpret a scene or subject
without the constraints of
time, budget, and commercial
client concept.
My personal fine arts work
tends to be in three areas:
nature (with a pronounced
penchant for trees), vignettes
of places I’ve traveled to,
and portraits.
The fascination with trees has
something to do with being
humbled by their majesty, as
well as feeling connected with
wood as I do when I pursue
another favorite interest,
furniture making.
In the travel vignettes, I
attempt to capture something
of the essence of a country or
place by selecting a scene –
not really a landscape -
which contains elements of
design as well as a sense of
the ambience of the area.
The portraits are the result
of my never-ending fascination
with the incredible variety of
the human countenance, and
these personal portraits have
frequently lead to advertising
and annual report assignments.
Bill graduated from John
Carroll University, majoring
in Chemistry, with minors in
Philosophy and Math. He
pursues photography as a
career because "I can't
imagine doing anything else".
