Artist's Statement

Carl 3.jpg

My profession was healthcare administration, the last 30 years as CEO of two large, non-profit community health centers in Los Angeles. Besides my family, my passion is photography. It started long ago with a Honeywell Pentax SP IIa (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PentaxSpotmatic) but waned as my family and career took center stage. Also, I found myself spending hours in the darkroom to get the perfect print!  Fast forward many years. The kids grew up, left home, and I discovered digital photography and the passion returned, though the darkroom is now an iMac, iPad and iPhone.
