IS NOW *LIVE* AS OF AUGUST 2008!! THANKS FOR VISITING EVERYONE. YOU MAY NOW VIEW MY WORK AND ORDER DIRECTLY FROM THE NEW WEBSITE. PLEASE CLICK THE LINK ABOVE TO BE REDIRECTED.
Fate as we know it sometimes lies beyond our means of understanding and surfaces at just the right moment in our lives. Greg’s fate currently lies in the blue and green hands of Black Hmong Villager from the northern highlands of Vietnam.
After ten successful years in the technology business, he resigned from his position in 2004 and traveled the world for one year. Upon his return to America, his ‘vacation pictures’ soon became his life. One image in particular stands out in its ability to touch people. That image is the “Blanket Weaver”. Over the past few years this simple but striking image has surfaced as his signature piece and clearly embraces a story that he is intended to tell.
He aims to return to Vietnam in a few years time and find this woman who has changed his life. He will then write a book about his journey. The book will be one of “Hope”, hope that we all find our gift. Of “Quest”, the quest to find a woman solely based on a photograph of her hands, and the “human” story of the “Blanket Weaver” and who this woman really is.
Greg captured all of his images from that one year trip with a $400 point and shoot camera with no formal training in photography or art. He has been given a gift and intends to return the favor by sharing a wonderful story with you.
Greg has exhibited his work at the Austin Museum of Art, the Austin Fine Arts Festival, Houston’s Bayou City Arts Festival, the International Cultural Center at Texas Tech, the Audi Forum in New York City and many other spaces. He has also been published internationally in England and Mexico.
