When I read this quote below by Sarah Kay, I see this image in my mind’s eye. “Because there’s nothing more beautiful than the way the ocean refuses to stop kissing the shoreline, no matter how many times it’s sent away.” Allow calm views, like Ocean Migration, to wash away stress and negativity that impede your inner peace. It is easy to imagine the rocks rolling towards the water, welcoming the waves of constant kisses that are constantly coming at them.

End of Day
Sunsets are proof that no matter what happens, every day can end beautifully by Kristen Butler- Go out and be one with Mother Nature; allow her to show you we are all one with the universe. So, fill your heart with beautiful images that keep your Soul’s light shining bright! End of Day is a symphony, where all participants flow in harmony and me with my camera the composers- one of the best gifts given to me from nature.
Wolf n Bear?
Some people come into our lives and quickly go, some stay for a while, leaving footprints on our hearts and we are never the same- by Flavia Weedn. Indigenous cultures believe that bear footprints and the bear itself represent strength, courage and the connection to the natural world. This image reminds me of the ones that left their footprints on my soul.
“In Celtic Mythology the silver birch tree is sacred and symbolizes new beginnings and protection.” This quote speaks to me and helping me understand why I love Birch trees and my Irish Heritage. This image was taken at Jay Cooke State Park in February 2012 just a few months before this region received an unprecedented amount of rain in a 24-hour period; forever changing the landscape of this park.

It’s a steamy Monday morning here in Cabin Country, Minnesota. At first glance, this looks dreary, but find the peace this dew-covered window gives. Mother Nature grabs my attention again and gives me something to see that I haven’t paid attention to in the past. I give thanks for simple blessings like this image. I find beauty in the storm; I find my inner peace.
There’s a difference between pretty and beautiful. When someone is pretty, they have a good appearance, but when someone is beautiful, they shine from the inside out. – by Rishikajain.
Autumn is Summer’s last party celebrating a colorful season, so step outside and participate in Mother Nature’s gorgeous grand finale! For me, it’s like the trees are excited to shed the old in a colorful magical way; getting ready for their much-needed hibernation to rejuvenate and start fresh coming spring.
Commando photoziac artwork series statement:
My award-winning Photozaics are inspired by 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 with my journey into nature; recording the landscapes that spark my eye whether 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 by taking smaller shards and placing them in a rock tumbler to remove sharp edges while larger pieces are sanded by hand and assembled in the frame. Grouting finishes the artwork allowing the detail of each cut glass shape to add texture to my art. This series I call commando, it’s liberating to see the photo in sync with the frame no boundaries separating these two mediums from dancing: just beautiful fluid flow.
The great news just keeps pouring in! I have two more works accepted into the Cabin Art show just minutes from my home!

Beach Life
Life is like an Ocean or in this case a Great Lake; sometimes it can be calm, rough waves, gorgeous blue waters, or jet black with white caps but at the end of the day it is always beautiful. Simple views like this help me recharge my soul, releasing creativity like endorphins after a workout so I can share my visual art to the world.

About Orange Watercolor:
The sunset silhouettes of the islands have been like no other I’ve seen on my travels, knowing you are in borderland country (Minnesota/Canada) when you visit the trees bouncing off the evening sky. In my eyes each sunset is unique and unlike the previous day. Colors from sunsets change just like the seasons. Late summer sunsets have the deepest orange fading into twilight blue.
A collection of landscape infrared images of my travels across the US and Canada.
This collection is available for solo shows, exhibitions, and gallery representation. Please feel free to contact me for more information about this collection.
