ASmith Gallery chose two of my images out of some 650 to be included in their Perspective on-line gallery show. Juror Kevin Tully chose Homecoming for the Juror’s Award. The image will also be included in the Gallery’s printed Book of 27 images. Homecoming is from a continuing series reflecting on my experiences as an immigrant. The Immigrants Journey.

Juror Kevin Tully’s comment about the image:

First, I was immediately attracted to your images because they are so well done. They are complete. Your attention to detail is obvious in that it is not immediately obvious. It is so spot on that we aren't aware of it because you have made a seamless scene and montage. So much composited work is clumsy, immediately causing the viewer to examine process. Your images become complete vignettes. The viewer immediately starts spinning story in their mind.

They are compelling as scenes from a larger narrative. They have the feel of illustrations from a graphic novel, but infinitely more sophisticated of course. I would like to see more from this series. Thanks again.
