ENDANGERED: Fine Art & Photography Contest 2021 Submission

I am very much a visual traveler interacting with the world and ideas on a variety of levels through several planes of vision that intersect with time and space. At those intersections, I hope to capture an intriguing moment and portray it from my perspective. Often, I venture well beyond the pathways of others in my photographic journeys.

Color, light, and gesture are important elements in my work. My use of these varies intrinsically across landscapes, nature, people, and culture. My choices of timing, perspective, and composition are intended to draw the viewer into the setting and moment. Often, I try to pattern my pursuit of opportunities to the natural tempo of what I see.

In creating art, I try to remain open to possibilities, trust my instincts, and discard labels that are divisive. I use technology to increase my creative options and productivity, but not to replace my vision and responsibility.

As an artist, I hope my images communicate in a unique and engaging way.
