Places & Pieces

Where I've been, and what I made along the way.

Begin the journey
A large orange-red torii gate stands in smooth, still water at dusk, with dark hills and a few distant town lights behind it under a pale grey and pink sky.

The gate at dusk, the water holding its breath.

A narrow stone-walled canal runs toward a small bridge under a canopy of cherry blossom, with a weeping willow at left and a few people and shop signs on the far side.

A small bridge, and the blossom closing over the water.

A narrow street of dark wooden merchant houses with lit lamps and shop signs, leading to a pale evening sky, with a few tiny figures far down the street.

The lamps coming on, one by one.

A cherry tree in full blossom stands on a hillside above a wide, hazy bay with distant islands and ridgelines.

19Mt Misen, Miyajima

From the top of Misen, one cherry tree in bloom above the Inland Sea.

Cherry blossom branches and a hanging willow frame a narrow canal lined with wooden townhouses and a low bamboo fence.

About the studio

A studio outside the day job. Each place is a chapter, told through the photos I took there. Pieces I make along the way come later.
