Andrew's Story

This is probably one of the most time consuming images Brian has done. You see, he has only begun to create the image when he presses that little black button on the camera. Often times he has an image in his mind's eye of how it will end up, and it takes a considerable amount of time, knowledge and several computer programs, filters and plug-ins to bring it to life.

So, you wonder, what is this image about? Well, Andrew Bultemeier has been wrestling for years, probably since he was 3 or 4. His dad was a skilled member of the Bellmont wrestling team, as was his older brothers, Victor and Ben. Andrew's goal was to follow the long line of BHS wrestlers to a state victory. Unfortunately, a host of sports injuries kept this from happening. That is why we have this image of his injuries "haunting" him.
