         The Underwater Series came about from spending years watching my young son swim. The images were begun the summer of 1987, when I acquired an underwater Nikon and shot swim team members in many different poses, usually without heads. The parts of the bodies underwater created a feeling of ghost-like quality to the figures, which intrigued me at the time. The transparencies were stored, however, with no idea of what would happen to them. In 1997, I began the Water Series using the computer to combine figures in different configurations. The underwater images surfaced again as a part of the digital work that was beginning to take shape on my computer.
