I’m a student of life; I see beauty in nature, people and the world around me, small details and complete view. Without the ability to actualize an idea or concept, art would not exist. My work is a constant search for the best way to interpret the ideas that I have about myself and the world I live in. I do not limit myself to one medium, style, or concept.
Inspiration and ideas change. My knowledge changes and grows. Each piece I create is simultaneously an extension from the past, where I’ve come from and what I’ve learned, as well as a preview of the future, where I’m going.
I do not classify myself as just a photographer, as some might think from looking at my work. I am a sculptor, a painter, a photographer, an artist.
If a viewer stops for just a moment to view and reflect on a photograph, a photo collage or a painting I have created, then I have succeeded in my work.
Stunning! Wet and warm here too but we’ve had some great skies 😀
our winter is odd, Dec. 20th, +11,2 c, same temperature we had at midsummer this year.
Oh it’s as strange here too! Today 14 degrees but the weekend was 16/17 in the day and 13 at night. It should be closer to freezing! Bulbs are all coming up and lots of blossom is out. If it does turn cold in the new year they’ll all be ruined 😦 Hope you have a lovely Christmas and New York!
Same to you Sarah!
😀
these are fantastic!
thanks so much.
Juuri näin! Kauniita sävyjä, mielenkiintoisia pintoja losotuksesta huolimatta! Täällä Jyväskylässä sataa näin joupäivän kunniaksi aivan vaakatasossa… vähän kuin juhannuksena!
täällä kirkkonummella myös, eilen oli tosi komea kuutamo. Muutaman kuvan otin ja nyt käyn läpi mitä niistä tuli.
