Astro Polaroids is a personal blend of my love for Polaroid film and my affinity for the night sky. As an engineer and a mountain dweller in the heart of Appalachia, between Virginia and Tennessee, I merge my mechanical skills with my passion for stargazing. I capture deep space and wide-field images on Polaroid film, embracing the surprising and unpredictable challenges it presents.

Many nights have been spent in some of the darkest areas of the United States' east coast, crafting one-of-a-kind pictures. These images are a unique homage to the celestial bodies and the rural landscapes that inspire me.

Marquetry is the creation of pictures using the natural colors, grain, and figures of wood veneer.  Often described as 'quilting in wood'.

I love the incredibly varied palette provided by the more than 150 varieties of wood species from all over the world.  There are times when the cutting is secondary to finding that one color, grain, or figure that conveys everything you were looking for on one particular piece of the overall work.
