I am... a lifelong artist, mum and grandmum, collector of vintage curiosities, homeschooling veteran, storyteller, student, follower of Jesus, geek, photographer, espresso lover, and more... still trying to figure out what I want to be when I grow up...

I like to make stuff. Voiding warranties since I was a kid, I also like to take stuff apart and put it back together.

My rules for photography? Thomas Edison said it well...
"There are no rules here -- we're trying to accomplish something."

And a random fact just for fun... one of my first jobs was working in a FotoMat booth in the mid 70s, complete with blue and yellow uniform... job title: FotoMate. For real, that's what they called us... you can't make this stuff up. And, yes, I did look at your pictures. :-\
