The World I See When I’m Photographing

Over 18 months ago, I started combining my photography and illustration to show the surreal world I get to see inside my head.

I think they're great; they show how private realities differ, and how many ways the same thing can be looked at.

I think they're fascinating...the mechanical wings, the blue mecha-heron, and the moss-covered stone figure are my favorites...
