My attraction to Italy began in France when I met a beautiful French/Italian college student in Paris. She introduced me to the Italy of her ancestors in the northern mountains of Italy -- the little village of Sassello.

I have been using special techniques to introduce Impressionist and abstract renderings to my photographs of Italy; some of these effects are digital enhancements and some are camera created. I find that the colors and textures of Impressionism most accurately represent what I see and feel about Italy.


The subject matter is somewhat diverse as is the design and composition of the images, but they all seem to fit into a broad interpretation of an Impressionist style of visual art.

I find that working with digital equipment gives me the freedom and variety of image creativity that makes these moods possible.
