about my work

When I look up, I see the sky as a canvas bursting with abstract images of beauty and awe.  When I look around, I see the playful images of light and shadow reflecting off of everyday objects, waiting to be noticed. 

​

From this perspective, I have been photographing intriguing and engaging abstract images. 

​

In my portfolio, "Reflections" and "Perceptions" the photographs show humorous and mystical images created by the reflections of light bouncing off of everyday objects. 

​

In my abstract work, the following excerpt from iphotography (2021) closely exemplifies how I view the photos: “ … abstract photography is exactly what the viewer makes it, and it can hold many different interpretations, views and opinions.  … it offers many different ways of looking at a subject. ... could there be more to it than meets the eye?” 

In searching where my reflections photographs might fit within a particular genre, I came across the modernists - the creators of abstract photography  - although their processes are so different from how I digitally photograph images using an iPhone and Nikon 950.

The conceptual and spiritual ideas shaped by the modernists inspired me to publish a book on  my  photography  of  

reflections entitled "Abstract Reflections - - A Modernist Perspective" (2023).

​

I also completed a new exhibit and book entitled "Enveloped by Clouds - A Photographic Spiritual Journey" (2023). The emphasis is on the inherent abstract nature, beauty, and magnitude of clouds providing the viewer with a meditative experience, inspired by the death of my mother.

And now with a newly inspired project, I created an immersive video experience entitled: "Inside A Cloud",  allowing the viewer to experience what it might feel like to be enveloped by clouds. I've also published a book of the same name which includes poems and photos (2024).

personal relationship with the environment, through Water, Sky, Shadows, Silhouettes and the Sea.
