The artist states, “These color photographs reflect my current visual interests. The confluence of light, color, surface, and human intervention attracts my attention. Observation, the act of noticing, is at the core of this work. The commonplace has more potential than a casual perusal might suggest. It is the turf I enjoy working, sometimes yielding small surprises or gifts. The act of walking and wandering helps me in fostering a mindset of awareness.
"The real voyage of discovery consisted not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes." - Marcel Proust
