Artist's Statement

Photography and drawing have been a passion of mine since I was a child. My first camera only took black and white photos. I learned a lot about light and shadows. When I was able to take color photos my world opened up.
In my twenties I started exploring painting, first in oils then acrylics. Now I divide my time between photography, drawing, and painting. Since I live in the mountains I have inspiration all around me every day. Hopefully that inspiration comes through in my art.
