Major photographic projects worked on to date include:

The Visitor, Walking 1000 Miles Through Mexico in which I have spent a more than six months walking more than 1000 miles through Mexico from 1983 to 2017 searching for images;

The Arctic, Microcosm of Change, started in 2002 and continuing through the present, including twelve visits to the Arctic portions of the circumpolar nations of the U.S., Canada, Greenland, Norway, and Russia;

Morocco, images from more than 10 Moroccan cities from 1990 to the present;

Totems, stacked selenium-toned gelatin silver print triptychs inspired by the Totem Poles of the First Nations peoples of the northwest coast of North America, from 1999 to the present; and

Industrial Districts, from 1984 to the present, obtaining images every year, primarily in Portland, Oregon but also in several other cities in the U.S. and Canada.

Photography, drawings, and short films are my three primary media.

Other than work in the major photographic projects above, some examples of drawings and a short film are included on the site, as well as photographic images of  Antarctica, Greenland (Kalaallit Nunaat), the Canadian Rockies, Europe (France, Spain, and Andorra), Asia (Hong Kong, Bangladesh, India, Nepal, and Qatar), and the U.S.

All work is available for purchase. I guarantee satisfaction with all purchases. My work has been widely collected, including by the Portland Art Museum, Regional Arts and Culture Council, Bibliotheque Nationale de France, Bank of America, Levi Strauss and Co., and many other companies, organizations and individuals. The work has been shown in more than 100 galleries and museums in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Europe, and Asia since 1984.
