I was raised on the "mean streets" of Cleveland's Little Italy.

Almost became a Catholic priest until I saw Marylin Monroe in "Some Like It Hot".

I went to college late in life and was deemed a "renaissance man" by the humanities department.

My influences are as diverse as Federico Fellini, Todd Rundgren, Ryuichi Sakamoto, Vincent Van Gogh, Dali, Quan Yin, Buddha and most of all a simple carpenter from Nazareth.

I am now an old knight, returned from the quest, searched for the grail, fought the devil, kissed an angel and looked for beauty in the modern world. My art / photography (is there a difference?) is a reflection of that search.

The fractals are produced in a number of programs, I usually sit for hours listening to Tangerine Dream and play with the math, over and over until the images “sing” to me. Further manipulation is provided in Photoshop and Corel.

As for my photo images. …

Guys from the old neighborhood were gleaning my files for years, without my knowledge. My studio was a common meeting place for 70's style “get togethers” and we would often go out to the rooftops of Cleveland’s tallest office buildings to drink some home made wine , it was during these get togethers that "the boys" would keep me occupied while sneaking into my office and stealing negatives! Years later one them says .... " we figured if anyone from the neighborhood would ever make it, it would be you! And we hoped you'd cut your ear off like Van Gogh or commit suicide and these negatives would be worth money! You let everybody in the neighborhood down by settling down and having a family."

Enhancements are in Photoshop and Corel as well as Painter.

My angels are NOT just the statues but also the women and all the various people and places I photograph. Fellini said, “He who looks with innocent eyes, all is divine!”
