Photography
what I see when I look close and sometimes far away
bark
I love trees. Everything about them, actually, but especially the bark. 2015-2023
branches
Tree branches are like nature’s expressive mark-making in the sky. 2015-2023
water
Warm blues, crashing waves, ice crystals, raindrops, and dramatic grays. 2021-2023
rocks
Held in my hand, shaped by water, streaked and colored by minerals, formed eras ago, and some so hugely magnificent, I am left in awe. 2021-2023
compositions
Combining seemingly dissimilar images together to show a similar relationship. 2022-2023
leaves
Dried leaves and wet leaves; a single leaf to a gathering of leaves; a random arrangement or ones composed; vibrant colors and muted; so many moods, for every season. 2015-2023
landscapes
I tend to focus on what’s up close. Then sometimes, I take a broader view. Other times, I choose the middle way. 2015-2023
vines
Vines are nature’s way of expressive mark-making, too. 2015-2021
lichens, moss, and fungi
The tiny, wavy, flaring, sprawling, clustering colonies. 2015-2023
metal
Rusted hinges, graffitied signs, and staples holding memories. 2015-2021
concrete
Sidewalk cracks, leaf and hand imprints, splattered paint, painted street, distressed wall. 2015-2022
distressed
Slashed, worn, flaked, and chipped. 2016-2021
