An ongoing series of photographs spanning nearly five years show him to be an animalier; his subject is his small flock of laying hens who share with him a picturesque 19th century Maine farm that once covered one hundred thirty acres, and whose Northern edge was the Presumpscot River.

Larry’s work has been included in many publications including Design Language, 2006, Tim McCreight, Brynmorgen Press; Abstract Art, Dean Nimmer...
