'roid Head

My images have been manipulated just after the picture was taken - not digitally altered.

This manipulation technique the could only be accomplished by using Polaroid's time zero/ sx-70 film, which has been discontinued.

I've written an "how to" article for JPG magazine, published in issue no. 9, which explains how I manipulate photos.

    "I wish I have gotten into photography at a much sooner age. Then I could have picked your brain on all those family vacations to Florida. I am blown away right now."
