In this collection, the works of art are Mixed media; a combination of my loves of photography and mosaics that I call photoziacs. The artwork is available in various sizes, from 16×14 to 30×26 (long edge). These works of art change and exhibitions can be customized to fit the gallery’s space. They sell quickly so this is just an example of what I have to offer.

Crissy Beach
Sometimes you just need to surrender to the scene and get pulled into the wonders it has to offer your senses. That is what happened to me when I came upon this boardwalk while walking the beaches in San Francisco’s Marina District. The boardwalk pulls me to the water and my eyes circle around the remnants of old docks, Sausalito, and Alcatraz off in the distance. I can still smell the salty sea air and hear the foghorn sounding off warning ships of the bridge when I look at this photo.

Skeleton Rafters- 16×20 simple black matt and frame
Skeleton Rafters
As the wood rafters decay, they provide a source of life for future plants to grow on. Mother Nature has been working hard to eliminate the man-made structure but it’s not going down without a fight. Awe-inspiring to see nature reclaiming Her space that humans abandoned a long time ago. My eye immediately caught sight of the lime green moss, but when I approached to get a closer look, I was surprised that the nails were still intact, standing the test of time.
Accepted works of Art are Pine Edged Road and Golden Gate Bridge photozaics
Sized medium PER20x17x12021-1
Sometimes the path in life is not clearly defined. The only thing you can do is to 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!
Golden Gate Bridge
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.
My soul was itching to get out and wonder; but instead of looking to the natural landscape, a nudge from the universe to photograph industrial landscapes. I Waited to bring attention to human consumption and waste of our natural resources. What is man trying to do here? Create a mountain for the gods of trash? Paying respect to Mother Nature trying to recycle what was taken from her? What do you see?
Campering life is to be out in nature recharging your soul appreciating the simple pleasures that life gives you. Make sure the paths you take in life have dirt, grass, rocks, and mud. The quote below speaks to me. Now I see the secret of making the best person, it is to grow in the open air and to eat and sleep with the earth. By Walt Whitman.
This scene captivated my eyes as the hint of lime green sprouts just breaking the jet-black soil accompanied the Seeds Mother Nature planted earlier in the Spring.
