Artist Statement

My goal is to inspire those who see my work to look more carefully at the world around them, to discover beauty in unusual places. I am enamored by all things, as they are beautiful in their element, but are often overlooked. Photography is a journey for me, a quest to capture elements of nature and the beauty around me. I have loved Art since the first grade. I enjoy taking pictures and seeing peoples reactions to these pictures. Every time I take a picture, it makes a smile come on my face. Every time I think I want to do something different, I always come back to art. Art has became a part of me; running through my body, oxygenating my blood, with new ideas, with each heartbeat. Please enjoy the Beauty around us, in NATURE.
