 self portrait #2 - 1997

 

 

                    Hi, welcome to my homepage.  I'm a senior, exercise science major at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio.  After I graduate this May I will be going on to medical school at Ohio State University.  This page is an assignment for a systems analysis class (SAN 141) that I'm taking, but I thought it would be a good way to publish some of my photographs (I'm a photography minor here at Miami).  The inspirations for my images come from the work of my two favorite photographers, Roy DeCarava, and Jerry Uelsmann.  It is DeCarava's work that I most try to emulate; since I discovered him this past fall I have adopted his printing style of images that lean towards dark greys and blacks, so some of the photographs may not be viewed as clearly as if the original was available.  I also draw inspiration from other kinds of art, such as music (my favorite artist is Sarah McLachlan).
