This is a series of digital composite images composed largely of public domain photos
found on various internet sites. They are political and cultural satires on current
political figures and movements.
I am an artist/photographer based in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where I am an Assistant Professor of Digital Media at Tulsa Community College. I studied painting at the University of Tulsa, earning BFA and MA degrees. I took up photography shortly after graduation and I approach the medium from a painter’s perspective. My photographic skills came about largely through self-education.
