I'm so glad you're here. Thank you for taking the time to visit my galleries. I hope you find some joy in what you see.
My love for photography began at the age of 9 with a 110 camera on a train ride across the country with my grandma. Blurry landscapes of fields and mountains as the train traversed the states.
Studying art in college, time passed in another dimension developing photos in the darkroom, moving from light to dark and back again, watching shapes appear on photo paper under dim red lights with the smell of developer filling the air. Photography has changed a lot since then, but it's still magic looking through the lens, composing a photograph.
"You are a painter, my dear" said Linda Cushing as she taught me oil painting techniques at the beginning. It took me awhile to embrace this. Time passes differently here too, always working with the next stroke of the brush, the next mix of color.
I love capturing moments that might otherwise go unnoticed, unappreciated. My mission is to cultivate beauty.
It's also my mission to put my three boys through college, where they'll all be within 5 years. So, if it suits you, purchase some art and help my sons go to college!
