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.  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 assemble the frame.  Grouting finishes the artwork allowing the detail of each cut glass shape adding the texture to my art.

Just a few examples you will see at this exhbition
