Artist Statement

Fine Art Photographer

As a child growing up in Switzerland my family and I spent many summers in a remote cabin in the alps. Besides spending much time reading books, my mother often told me wonderful stories of far away worlds full of fantastic characters. During the day I spent many hours exploring the alpine meadows in the company of these imaginary friends. Today many of my portraits are of characters who escaped from this fantasy world. They each carry with them their own unique story. While I have my version of story for each character I hope the imagery evokes the imagination of the viewer as to come up with their own background for each inhabitant.
