ARTIST STATEMENT

My photographs are mosaics pieces of my memory that I chose to document and share with the world. My soul's need to wonder about Nature's Landscape came from my parent's love of travel via RV when I and my brothers were younger. We believed that the road trip was a part of the journey that you can't get from a plane. I would sit and watch the landscape go by, as this was our Television. No reruns to watch, just magical views to ignite my child's imagination insisting that my mind wander. This has stuck with me into my adult life, and how I decide what areas I want to explore. In recent years I've noticed the images I'm capturing are symbolic of what I'm seeing on the news about attacks on human rights. These images are examples that I can no longer ignore.
