Artist Statement of Work

Tell us about your work (style, approach, philosophy, subject and/or theme):

My work focuses on spreading joy and sharing beauty, often through nature photography. I use narrative storytelling and poetry to offer greater meaning to compelling photographs. My philosophy is that we all come from the same root. I see our inherent Oneness in everything everywhere. The themes of spirituality, Mother Earth, and Father Sky are prevalent in my work. My favorite subjects to photograph are flowers. I believe art should heal by reconnecting us with ourselves, with what we value, and with each other. Art should expand our consciousness and offer new perspectives. I also enjoy creating useful art that serves an interactive purpose, like calendars and magnets.
