Photographer and Painter
"I have always been intrigued by new places and people. Traveling around the world has led me to beautiful vistas, fascinating cultures, and unforeseen discoveries. Journeying through life with an appreciation of differences and with an eye for the unexpected has inspired me to create art which captures that spirit.
As a fine art photographer and painter I also view my immediate world with the same sense of wonder. Watching snow fall, a stream flowing, or clouds dispersing in the sky, all create that same feeling of unexpected discoveries.
Observing the way light reflects on a lake, a ceramic bowl, a copper pot; the way it penetrates glass, water, mist; the way it illuminates rooftops, trees, or a child’s face and expressing it, is my challenge. It is the differences in the light, the fascinating way it plays on the surface, the way it changes the spectrum of colors, and the unforeseen effects it has on those who view it that make it all worth capturing.
My art is my journey through which I explore these subtle, yet amazing, differences around us, and share them with others, so that they, too, can be captured by this spirit of life."
