Abstract Landscapes

I have never been interested in recording landscapes as they appear.

Depending on my mood, peeling away the obvious reveals something more appealing to my eye. I layer images then peel them off and the results move to abstraction, as emotional records less bound by certainty than by the curiosity they aroused in me.

What was in my mind at the time of both the taking and the processing?

The camera becomes a tool for interpretation rather than documentation which, via abstraction, removes familiar visual anchors.

Slow down and look more deeply at these meditative similes.
