I have loved photography and made it my career for over thirty years and have devoted much of that time to working with the public and creating wonderful, evocative portraits for my clients.
In December of 2016 I chose to try my hand at a more creative endeavor for myself.
I began a journey into macro flower and nature photography. With my background in photography, I already had the equipment and the knowledge of lighting, form and composition. I was amazed and delighted with what I would create.
My love of flowers and nature goes back to my childhood. Raised by a commercial greenhouse owner in Ohio, my immersion into flowers began early.
Remembering the feel, smell and beauty of flowers at a tender age and being surrounded by flowers for all my formative years fostered a great love for them.
For my art, I have combined my two loves—flowers and photography.
Using the best light to bring out the individual characteristics of each variety is how I begin. I then enhance them through digital painting before being printed on canvas.
Each image can take days before I am satisfied with the nuances of the added painting.
When I am exhibiting my images, the most satisfying thing is to have people visibly relax as they observe my creations. My images bring a feeling of peace and happiness to the viewer, which was my intent from the beginning.
