Artist statement
My photographs grow from what I call emotional discovery. The discovery of previously unseen patterns and arrangements of colors and shapes, in nature, that create a strong emotional state. Each image is made more unique by the intergration of lighting and conditions that come together at the moment of the photograph’s conception. It is here in the space created by natural conditions and emotional discovery that my images exist.
