Frequently asked questions about the work I do
1)
There is no software that will age-progress a photo into either a scientifically accurate or artistically realistic portrait.
I do not use morphing or automated aging in any way in my age progressions done with digital painting and photo-digital art.
2)
My age-progressed and age-regressed portraits ar forensically based on all available source materials, including genetics, lifestyle, medical history, personality, environment, and how gravity will effect that person's face.
3)
I use a large Wacom tablet with pressure sensitive stylus, a very large Apple monitor, a Mac computer, and Photoshop.
My animations for movies and television are usually created by cross-dissolving between separate age-progressed, digitally painted portraits.
4)
I am a conventionally trained portrait artist. My first book with my illustrations was published in 1958 by Harper Brothers. books
I have been doing research, development and technical writing on hardware and software for the media since the first Mac in 1984.

I am also a photographer and my photos and photo-digital artwork is frequently used in advertising.
I use Canon DSLR cameras and a suite of Canon lenses. I love my 85mm f1.8 prime portrait lens.
6)
My Whitey Bulger work for the FBI, in addition to the age progressed portrait, included a complete analysis of everything they had on his and his girlfriend's history, health and life style. I sent them out to get additional information including the data on his woman companion that led to his capture.
I was doing Bulger as my prototype design of graphically based website for locating fugitives which presented the information visually in categories that got every more specific, in a 'treasure hunt' for the reward.
