why weims?
in 1999, i got my first puppy, a blue baby weimie. i named her rolyn. she was so cute! i took so many pictures of her and discovered that she was extremely photogenic!
when she was 2 years old, chanhi, a 6 month old blue weim came into our lives. our friends found her at a pet store but they couldn't keep her so they gave her to us! what a special gift!!
i took some b&w photography classes and rolyn and chanhi were the subjects the whole time! my teacher loved them!
shortly after, chanhi died suddenly. she was only 5 1/2 years old. it was the most painful experience i have ever been through. as a tribute to her, and a way to deal with the loss, i painted my first weimaraner portrait.
tragically, 6 months later, rolyn died at only 7 1/2 years old. i wanted a way for them to live on somehow, to celebrate their lives. since i had all of these b&w photographs, i wanted to make an online gallery of them, for them.
in between those 2 sad events, i found mukha. she was born on the same day that chanhi died. mukha is alive and delightful! i have finished 3 paintings of mukha so far, and i'm almost finished with another one!
i decided that i was going to become a weimaraner photographer and painter. that's where i am now!

my b&w photographs are taken with an asahi pentax k1000, an old camera that uses film. i love it! i develop the negatives and create the prints in my darkroom. it is a much slower process than the digital way, but it is more rewarding and it's a lot of fun! my b&w darkroom.. another lens in progress, just has a few pics right now.

.:does my bum look fat?:.new and improved, i reprinted it and rescanned it. it looks a lot better than the one on my website. i have to replace that soon and most of the other b&w's because they are currently poor quality scans.
