The world as I see it

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.

Beautiful leaf shots, Ritva. When we lived in Ohio and had a wood-burning stove, suddenly twigs and branches became fodder for the stove, although there were more twigs than we could ever hope to burn. I take pride in the fact that we never bought wood. I found it everywhere and every time I saw a tree being cut down, I’d see if I could take some wood. 🙂

We have so much trees on our property at the summer home that we do not have buy them, I usually tell my that that tree is in the suns way… could you cut it😊 at home we buy the logs so we can burn them in a fireplace.
