TOWER BRIDGE 1988
TOWER BRIDGE 1988

TOWER BRIDGE 1988 is an analog composite panoramic contact print made from color negatives shot with an Olympus OM-1, which I had specially filed out by Marty Forscher of Professional Camera Repair in NYC, to eliminate the spacing in between frames.  Acetate stencils and gels were used under the enlarger during the exposure to adjust tone and color, in a time before Photoshop. Created in 1988 for Traveler Magazine. For similar images see Early Collage.

VIKING JMB Homage Version 2018

VIKING JMB Homage Version 2018 is an interim version of a digital photo collage work-in-progress. Made primarily from imagery found on Google Earth in the vicinity of Japan,  this version also includes elements of a Jean-Michel Basquiat painting and a skull with a viking helmet, along with elements of my sketch guide lines in green and magenta. The final version aims to be potential lawsuit free.
