THE TRANSPARENCY COLLECTION

The slides focus on the Southwestern United States, with an emphasis on the most spectacular rock art sites. The rock art of the Colorado Plateau, particularly of Eastern Utah, constitutes the majority of the images. Other sites featured are in Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Nevada, California, New Mexico, Colorado and Texas.

THE ILLUSTRATION COLLECTION

All the illustrations were created with projected slides for accurate, photo-realistic results. Photographs were taken as perpendicular to panels as possible with long lenses, a tripod and cable release.
