Digitally enhanced photograph 12 x 12 in. Making sense of the world these days can be overwhelming. Life is complicated and the stimuli constant. I often long to get away to my happy place by the sea, listening only to the wind song and the rhythm of the tide, feel the sea breeze wash over me, and just breathe. “Amid a world of noisy, shallow actors it is noble to stand aside and say, 'I will simply be.” - Henry David Thoreau Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Digital photograph printed on Epson photo paper 13 x 10 in. This photo is close to my heart, taken while on tour with my now adult daughter in Vietnam. The grandmother seemed very confused while the younger women pointing a figure at her called her out.

35mm digital image 18 x 12 in. w/frame 26 x 20 in. The image titled 489 was produced from a 35mm digital image. Other than saving it a jpg no other actions took place in Photoshop. The image was captured on an early July morning at a local kayak shop. The bright, colorful design shows the reflection of a rack of kayaks on the side of a glossy black box trailer. I could not resist the playful, abstract shapes that changed forms with every step as I approached. The pattern of the black panel rivets creates a repeating rhythm to the design.

Photograph 12 x 12 in. I felt so fortunate to have caught this special moment of two women friends, one cool summer morning as they walked together in the sea.

Digital photo ltd ed signed on front 11 x 14 in. In Tales of a Consulting Detective, Sherlock Holmes said: “You see, but you do not observe. The distinction is clear.” I take my camera out.

I want to observe and to present things in a way that causes the viewer to stop and observe. I want people to see other people.

Photograph printed on watercolor paper using liquid light 20 x 15 in. My photographic goal has been to achieve simplicity of design and composition reminiscent of classical style. I have created images, often using as my subject the reflection of my own body in mirrors. The reflected image brings a surreal quality to the images, transcending time and space. My model is a woman in search of her lost identity: a mother, daughter, lover, and divorced wife, torn between her traditional upbringing and her present life in a foreign land. In 1989, I started using “liquid light” on watercolor paper with my photographs in the darkroom, painting with this medium to show the brush strokes. In my own style, I achieve a unique combination of strokes and images, so that my photographs may look like Japanese black brush paintings. By using brush strokes I was able to bring flowing movement into my pictures, resulting in fascinating visual effects.

Unique Platinum/palladium photograph 5 x 7 in. w/frame 11 x 14 in. In my art work, I capture the simple beauty in everyday life, the commonplace or ordinary scenes in the environment. These images offer us rare moments of solitude, time to slow down and observe the world around us, and to enjoy quiet beauty and serenity. A photograph captures a portion of this beauty and tranquility, offering viewers quiet moments of reflection. Some of my favorite places to photograph are close to home, along city streets and nature trails. I use water and light as beautiful threads that draw the eye in, providing an opportunity to examine nature and the built environment. The quality of light is of paramount importance, defining the textures and forms in nature, and patterns of light and shadow. A strong sense of design is also important in these images. I use the platinum/palladium printing process to capture a softer, painterly effect, evoking late 19th century idyllic landscapes and lending a poetic quality to the images. The platinum/palladium process, a time- honored process, also renders a rich tonal scale and permanence to the images. It is a time-intensive, hand- made process—from coating the paper with varying mixtures of the platinum/palladium solution to exposing the negatives to sunlight and contact printing the image. Each platinum/palladium print is a unique, vintage quality print. Additional shipping/delivery charges will be handled between the artist and buyer after the purchase.

Watercolor on rag paper 12 x 8.75 in. For me, inspiration comes from ideas about how the universe works. Nikola Tesla said, “If you want to find the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration.” Combining preparation and planning with spontaneous, intuitive action I am on an experimental journey with watercolor to examine the natural world. My previous work was in oil, acrylic or pastel. Watercolor enables radiance with layers of transparency clearly showing the immediacy of the medium laid out over the underlying organized structure of the composition. The thought-provoking question of our reality is apparent in the ethereal nature of art where images vibrate with intensity of color and emotion and offer much more than the visual, something beyond the surface .
