Currently you can often find him pursuing his other passion, taking award winning automotive art photography at car shows throughout California. After working in the many creative facets of the performing arts, and having been exposed to some of the best Cinematographers and Photographers in the film industry, Jerry became fascinated with the photographic process. After returning to Fresno, he decided to pursue this new interest. A few years ago while visiting a local car show and shooting some entries just for his own enjoyment, he realized that the combination of his rapidly growing passion for art photography and his lifelong love affair with automobiles would be the perfect path leading to his own photographic bliss. The rest, as they say, is history and has resulted in an archive of tens of thousands of photos. But wait...there's more! With his cameras permanently attached to his body, Jerry hunts for more than just cars, trucks, motorcycles and boats! His roving lens seeks out..... the unique in the ordinary the perfection in the imperfect the sublime in the mundane the probable and the impossible Nothing escapes his creative eye and he is ever expanding his subject matter to include anything and anybody......some favorites are a collage of his grandson's energetic leaps and bounds during his football games - the Fresno City Hall in black and white... The
previously undocumented
mating ritual of...
  Plus all
the endless and irresistible lures of nature's treasures such
as:
An Iris dancing the Flamenco...  or peppers caught twirling in their tutus...  and just very simply....the moon.  Yes, you must often look closely at his images as he strives to give you more than a glance will reveal. Enjoy your visit. |
