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.

Great scene Wayne

i am fascinated with crytozoology and really have no doubt that this creature does exist...just too many different native legends and some very credible sightings and encounters...just hope that some idiot does not shoot one when one is encountered by that joker with his rifle..nice looking fella you've depicted, but not too sure about all that dark fur among the snow :) but, this is the MADHOUSE...

My Dear Doctor... all I can say is AHA! So, this is where that scoundrel got to.... a former crewman of The Wyvern Rampant, Fecelius Crumpf had jumped ship when we had docked at Kessalia for a little R and R. Crumpf, as stated had been bunked and crewed aboard our Armoured Airship when he jumped ship, taking plans and blueprints for our airship with him... An unnaturally hairy individual, Crumpf his out was to blend in with a group of traveling circustrian performers until he made good his escape...I would know that hirsute visage anywhere.... he will not escape the justice of Terran Trust and Investigations...

Well, inadvertently, you staffers have done a good thing! Big Foot is now protected in his (or her) environment because the location of the sighting has not been made public! All the folks who didn't read your notes will be trekking off to the frozen arctic regions to find Big Foot, while all the time he (or she) might be living in the woods just outside of town! How fortuitous that your staff chose to utilized computer imaging to display this very handsome Big Foot prototype in it's virtual arctic habitat, and what a beautiful job they did, it looks realistic enough to fool many folk! Bravo to the staffers and their awe-inspiring artistic abilities!
