Artist Statement

My work evolves from a lifelong fascination with and dedication to the natural environment. I create to express my commitment to the preservation of our native flora and fauna, to celebrate its diversity and document its fragility.

My goal is to capture the fleeting illuminations and restless color of that moment when the light makes magic. Through color, light and unique composition I create an image reflecting the vitality of our extraordinary surroundings. My distinctive portrayal of a subject gives the viewer a deeper understanding of the environment.
