Photozaic statement:
How can I construct an image that moves beyond the surface? Photozaics, of course!
My award-winning Photozaics are inspired where Van Gogh’s textures meet Ansel Adam’s simplicity near the intersection of Bob Ross’ healing vibes. This technique is a labor-intensive multi-step process and starts out with my journey into nature; recording the landscapes that spark my eye may it be rolling hills or a babbling brook. After modifying the composition, I take the print and head to the stained-glass shop to find matching colors. I cut the glass by hand taking smaller shards, and placing them in a rock tumbler to remove sharp edges while larger pieces are sanded by hand and assembled the frame. Grouting finishes the artwork allowing the detail of each cut glass shape adding the texture to my art.
Photozaic below is sized 20x17x1- All are unique works of art that are a must-see and feel!
Pine Edged Road
Sometimes the path in life is not clearly defined. The only thing you can do is breathe deeply, put your faith in the universe, and take the first step. Life’s road will have curves, enjoy them as they will bring you to wonderful places if you surrender. Road trips allow my mind to wander and absorb what Mother Nature shows me. I especially love watching the landscape change from mountains to desert; from city to Rolling country farms; brightly colored flowers to drab gray foggy scenes. All of these are gifts from her, so give thanks. Get out in nature and recharge your soul!

My exhibition will be a combination of my collections Spirit of the land meets Sanctuary of the Soul.
” Spirit of the Land” documented in infrared black and white photography. They portray an otherworldly, surreal, almost dreamlike state that feels three-dimensional. These images are matted and framed in simple black, and they blend nicely with my award-winning Photozaics from “Sanctuary from the soul “collection. The inspiration came from Van Gogh’s textures meet Ansel Adam’s simplicity near the intersection of Bob Ross’ healing vibes. This technique is a labor-intensive multi step process and starts out with my journey into nature; recording the landscapes that I spark my eye may it be rolling hills, a babbling brook. After modifying the composition, I take the print and head to the stained-glass shop to find matching colors.

Come check out my hybrid exhibition One last road trip leads to Sanctuary for the Soul. This Exhibition is a mix of my Photozaics framed art offered in color and infrared photographs images with a sprinkle of my black n white Infrared photos matted in black with simple black framing.
As we approach 1 million deaths from Covid in our country, we are all challenged with finding ways to process our grief. In 2019 I lost my father and decided to take his ashes on one last road trip. Or, at least, that was my plan, but I then decided to include him in every trip I’ve taken since. The photographs I am taking are my way of thanking him for giving me my eye for photography. Going on these road trips is a memorial to him in appreciation of the ever-changing landscapes. I went out into the world with an open but broken, heart looking to find peace in Mother Nature’s arms. I’ve found her to be a great place to recharge my soul in the past.
The viewer will be surrounded by nature photos with mosaics that will open them up to another plane of consciousness. The addition of mosaic frames will awaken your curiosity about what lies beyond the frame. Each viewer will have a different experience. This exhibition is a place for visitors to recharge their souls from daily stresses, sparking their senses and curiosity. As I create my photozaics I often lose myself in the process. The viewers of my work also find the details of the mosaic will draw them into the photo where they will find a sanctuary for their soul. I truly believe art heals the mind, body, and soul. The Norwegian University of Science and Technology discovered a definite correlation between participating in cultural activities, i.e. creating art, visiting art galleries, and attending concerts with increased rates of good health.
just a few samples of what I will have on exhibit.

I headed to San Francisco for an art show and decided to give myself a few extras days to explore this great City by the Bay. As the fog lifted, I snapped photos of the various areas in the Marina District. When the fog burnt off, I walked the area again up a long hill to capture this photograph. Nature really makes all these colors work together.
