Portfolio Artist Statement Online Information   Mike and Bob 13"x19", Archival Inkjet Print   Untitled Trailer 13"x19", Archival Inkjet Print  I observe and document subcultures; the worlds in which people find the comfort of fellowship with like-minded companions and a place to belong.

In the four years that Palm Springs has been my second home, I've found it to be both exactly and nothing like what I expected it to be. The city has ridden the waves of economic and cultural trends, which have left a wide variety of lifestyle choices in their wake. It is, at once, small-town America and an iconic American resort town. George Alexander's postwar development of 2,500 quality homes made this, once elite, desert paradise affordable to residents of all income levels. |
