I get lost in nature’s vast, wondrous, and interconnected world, spending hours in the woods looking intentionally at the world. My primary subjects are not the sensational or exotic, but rather quiet, near-at-hand miracles. Particularly fascinated by nuances of seasonal change, my images often focus on water, sky, reflections, and shadows.

My favorite haunts near home are the trails along the Northwest Branch, Sligo Creek, Maydale Environmental Center, Brookside Gardens, and, somewhat further afield, New Hampshire and Maine.

My artistic goals are to visually awaken the unfamiliar in the familiar, to celebrate nature as an aspect of the sacred, and to reaffirm our compelling human responsibility to protect the earth.

I especially enjoy leading small workshops on 'The Art of Seeing,' designed for artists and non-artists alike to develop visual awareness, imagination, and a spirit of joyfulness.
