These creatures begin as a rope laid out on the floor, and using a light table and Photoshop, end up as a family of "Whimcycles" laser printed onto a ultra-highgloss polymer medium (Fujiflex Crystal Archive).

Bio
I began photography and darkroom printing in London in the 1960s and retired from an academic career in Montana to pursue my love of art, as well as landscape and candid street photography.
In the 1980s, I developed a unique process of drawing using a light table and contact printing my translucent “inter-positives” directly onto Cibachrome polymer medium. The resulting original art prints were super-high gloss, high contrast, with intense colours reminiscent of stained glass. I have since adapted this process, producing Type-C prints on Fujiflex Crystal Archive for similarly stunning results.
