Hello!,..... Do feel that you are
most welcome.
Make yourself at home. The pictures you are about to see,
were taken with several different cameras,
ranging from a
large 4x5 View camera, twin-lens 6x6, and
single-lens reflex
system cameras.
I've tried to standardize my film,
paper, and chemicals,
in order to simplify and economize.
I
began photographing when I was 16 years old, using a
plastic Kodak Brownie Box Camera. After a few years of
photographing my friends and relatives, I
decided to try
photography as a profession, enrolling in
the City College
of Santa Monica, California to study
professional photography,
drawing, painting and ceramics. (The
drawings, paintings,
and ceramics, are my own productions.)
After a few years of study, I began to
exhibit my
photographs in the Los Angeles County
area. After completing
approximately 25 one-man-shows, I decided
to travel to Europe
to see what other artists were doing.
I ended up in Sweden, and it has become
my "home away from
home".
To date, I have had more than 85 exhibitions and
acquired acclaim from the community of
Södertälje, Sweden.
I was awarded a culture prize in 1974, for
furthering the
efforts to have photography recognized as
an art.
I am still an American citizen, born in
Panama City,
Panama R.P., July 19, 1940. Have attended American schools
from kindergarten up, through a liberal
arts sojourn in
Santa Monica City College, California.
(1962-65) Currently
living in Halmstad, Sweden.

When the Swedish counter is not
functioning: I have had more
than 22,240 visitors in the Swedish address, since the start of
August 18, 1996. (Updated: February 5, 2010)
