A GALLERY OF FAMILY PICTURES
Below are large drawings, think five feet tall. They are all drawn from family snapshots; several pictures are layered together to tell stories. Like a dream things merge and collide -- the baby twins playing, grandma at the piano -- are fused into a transparent mosaic. I use three generations of family snapshots, my own, my fathers, and my grandparents. The drawings often tell stories that span generations, reinvent events. Family meets across time.

These drawings reflect my history -- my Dad worked for Kodak; He taught me photography in his basement darkroom -- I am the boy who climbs in old family pictures. |
