Hrimfaxi - New Black and White graffiti work

Hrimfaxi is a god of the Norse pantheon who is said to pull the moon across the sky. She is also known as the horse of night or "frost mane." It's a happy addition to the black and white graffiti portrait series I've been working on, captured on the road while away for my brother's wedding. Sphere: Related Content

Danger Girl - personal work from black and white graffiti portrait series

Shot under the bridge downtown ( are you humming some Red Hot Chili Peppers now.) The detail in this image is just sick. I'm starting to finally get the graffiti portrait series converted to black and white, as I have intended to do for quite some time. Why you ask convert to monochrome when graffiti is so colorful? Glad you asked, I like the rich texture the subject exhibits in a monochrome environment. The tactile feeling is more like a charcoal and paint piece than a photograph. 

I'm quite happy with the new developments in black and white printing technology and want to push some of my work in this direction.

Devil's Due - personal work recently converted to black and white

Taken in 2006, I've loved this image for quite some time and wanted to convert it to black and white. The punch of the shot in this form is great. Not a better statement could be made. Sphere: Related Content
