The Illusion of Yes – Limited Edition Fine Art Photograph
Description:
A mannequin gazes outward, caught in a moment of poised hesitation—her body draped in delicate lace, her expression somewhere between invitation and refusal. This black-and-white photograph pairs seduction with ambiguity. Behind the glass, her figure feels almost alive—posed in a way that is both alluring and remote. Lace textures and gleaming reflections create an atmosphere of desire that never fully reveals its intention.
Returning to this image again and again, I found something magnetic in its contradictions: the tension between display and concealment, fantasy and restraint. Like so much in life, it hints at something just out of reach. It feels glamorous and unsettling—like a private theater staged for passersby. For me, The Illusion of Yes is a reminder that our fantasies often live just behind glass, asking only for our attention.

About the Artist
In 2019, I began focusing more fully on sharing this lifelong body of photographic work beyond family and friends. Today, I print and process my photographs in my home studio in California, producing both limited and open edition prints that embody decades of observation, experimentation, and my love of fine art photography.
