Mount Blanca

I work in the spectrum of the unseen, where light becomes memory and dream…

Black and white infrared reveals what lies beyond ordinary sight—veiled light, lost places, and the stillness held within the land. Drawn from memory and shaped by quiet observation, my work reimagines the familiar as something otherworldly. Empty homesteads, windswept prairies, and rising peaks become visual poems—where light becomes memory, and the landscape, a keeper of untold stories.

Artist Statement

Transforming ordinary, and often overlooked landscapes into ethereal images is the artistic vision behind this work. Infrared is a light spectrum invisible to the human eye, yet capable of revealing what ordinary vision cannot hold. This otherworldly light provides the ideal qualities to express a dreamlike portrayal of the land itself.

Growing up along Colorado’s Front Range, and spending much of my childhood on the vast wide open plains, has influenced this art tremendously, to include the rendering of negative space as an illustration of quietude. These images strive to illuminate the austere ruggedness of western scenes, the silence of the prairie, and the soul-stirring mystery of the desert.

The connection to these homelands is ancestral as much as artistic. The Great Plains, the San Luis Valley, the Taos Plateau, these are not locations to visit. They are places to return to. Infrared photography has always felt less like a technique and more like a way of translating what the land already knows into something others can feel.

These images move between the dreamlike and the elemental, between personal transformation and collective memory. After over thirty years of practice, what goes into each photograph is the same as what comes out, a reverence for the land, and a commitment to rendering its invisible life visible.
