Photography has been a major interest to me for many years. I am largely self-taught in the photographic arts but continue to seek out new ideas and learning opportunities. My latest includes incorporating both photography and painting. Seen through the lens of a camera and brought to canvas through my interpretation of colors and style. I have really enjoyed creating these and hope you find them to be both warm and inviting as well. I realize that every artist envisions an idea through their own eyes, with each of us having a unique perspective. It is with my perspective I hope to continue bringing you creative and unique photos and paintings, both black and white and colored. As I continue learning this art, I will continue searching for that one special photo from within the forest, driving through the country, or simply from my own backyard garden. Thank you for viewing my work.
