I started taking photos a few years ago with vintage Minolta's, an x-700 and SRT. Recently, with the help of my friend and photography mentor, Shelley Paulson, I am moving into digital photography with my new Canon 20D.

(Shelley is an inspiring photography; she took some pictures of me here one of which is my current buddy icon.)

I also really enjoy altered art and collage on canvases. My favorite mediums are melted crayons and beeswax, photo transfer, and antique photos. I love writing and journaling. And sometimes to make money, I do web development.

I was born in Spain and have travelled through Spain, Morocco, England, Belgium, Holland, France, West Africa , Mexico, Canada, and most recently Israel.

I like to walk slowly. I always take the round-about way of getting places, especially if the scenery is better. I am semi-solitary and have been known to eat out by myself with a book. I love the European lifestyle and the idea of long hours around a table with friends sharing a hearty meal, a beverage, and edifying conversation. For this reason, I love Spain, and the dream of Christian community. Anyone who knows me knows I love food, and it's one way to get me to attend anything. Serve food: "It's Biblical."
