A CREATIVE WITH A CAMERA
FINE ART PHOTOGRAPHY
ABSTRACTIONS - BLURRING THE LINES OF REALITY...
Using digital photography, I deconstruct my subjects so that individual elements can be more easily seen and therefore appreciated. My images remove details which brings the focus to colors, shapes and textures. This allows the subjects to be experienced as never before, piece by piece. My goal is to provide a visual interpretation of the spirit or “soul” of my subjects rather than a literal representation. I hope to take the viewer beyond looking to “seeing” and then FEELING. By this I mean responding to the essence of the subjects, ideally evoking an emotional reaction.

Her work has been exhibited throughout the state of Arizona for almost a decade as well as seen in publications such as The Sun and Phoenix magazine.
"How can one interpret a subject differently that has been photographed many times before? It is in his answer to this problem that the photographer places himself alongside the creative artists who are making something different out of the same old elements. Look what authors do with the same twenty-six letter alphabet, and painters with the same red, yellow and blue." - Ray Manley
