I live in New York City and am a practicing artist and educator.
Â
To begin … I have an M.F.A. from the University of Arizona. My academic and professional career include: teaching at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, serving as Director of the renowned 92 ST. Y’s Photography Department in New York City and Executive Director of the Institute for Art and Photographic Resources in Westchester New York and also an Adjunct Professor at New York University.
Other career highlights: I was awarded a grant from the National Endowment for the Arts and Polaroid chose some my images for its 50th anniversary celebration … POLAROID 50, a collection of 50 leading artists including famous artists as Andy Warhol, Ansel Adams, Cindy Sherman, etc.
My work has appeared internationally in galleries and museums, including the Toyko Metropolitan Museum of Photography, 80 Washington Square Gallery, New York City, Gallerie Mabrie in Paris, France, Lombard Freid Gallery, New York City, The Photographers Gallery London, England, Visage London, England, X+Â Brussels, Belgium Contretype, Brussels, Belgium, Thomans Cohn Gallery Rio de Janerio, Brazil, Foundation Canon Image Center Amsterdam, Art Institute Chicago, Illinios, Caltherine Edelman Gallery Chicago, Illinois, Kara Geneve, Zurich, Switzerland. Baronian -Lambert, Ghent Belgium.

A parallel “passion†for computer art began 15 years ago with 3D image making and the now ancient Photoshop 5 which culminated in QUESTIONS FOR A FETUS … a three-month installation of some 60 digital images sponsored by the Mother Earth Committee of New York City.
And now?  Now there’s doarte’s merry MADHOUSE with its Museum of Unnatural History for mementos past and present, the ODDATORIA Galleries for beasts and beauties, devil dolls and scenes devoted to serenity, a MIDWAY mad for models (fashionable and futuristic, glamorous and ghastly). And of course there is a circus serving divine divas to acrobatic rats … dozens of digital images dedicated to a relief from reality.
But the grandest dream of all … joining with other digital artist to make the computer a respected and important contributor to the world of art … just as the camera did for the world of photography.

Super work Doc, a very Voluptous Exotica doing the Swahili Swamp Stomp as you call it. Last time I saw something like that was in this little Twiligt till Sunrise Dive outside of Juarez, it was a LiL Latina called Santanico Pandemonium doing a Wicked Wanton Wiggle on Stage. Peace

Gorgeous dress. Love the effects. Way cool setting. And really unique concept. P.S. Sounds like a fun festival.

My Dear Doctor.... Greetings and fellicitations! having traversed greatly into the mysterious ways of the near East, I have been encountered strongly with the wiles and wills of the maidens propogating the dusky depths of the desert....these ladies will enrapture you with a sly turn of their hips and the merest lowering of the eyelids, demurly swanning forth with a come hither appeal... in my callow and feckless youth (having yet to be fecked), I did fantisize oft on recklessly rescuing the maidens from imagined (and some unimagined) evils... once an arrival to meaningfull adulthood, I did engage in adventures of a such to rival my fantasies... this handbill thus presented, did remind me of those heady days, of long gone times... I and my Lady will be of the audience (in our usual box...season's tickets) to engulf our senses in Exotica and her troupe of ecdysiasts... I can hardly wait!

BREATHTAKING! Yes at first glance exactly that. And then I sit back and enjoy it's delight. Of course the hint of purple is a grabber for me. Her movement is lovely. Really beautiful image Wayne. Love it!

It's been a while my friend and I just knew to expect something special when you were ready and I was right. For sure Exotica has me fired up with her delightful dance and it seems once more I must tip my hat to DOARTE'S MADHOUSE for another miraculous discovery

Dengue fever dance huh Doc ? and I thought she may used that extra strength deodorant by mistake ! Love the Exotica character, but the grainy effect has got me thinking this might be a Vue render, either way nice work. ~Cheers~
