I enjoy using a camera to translate my visualization into reality on paper. Visualization is defined as the ability to see in the "mind's eye" the finished work before actual application. It is the creative process of images transitioning from the realm of the reactive and contemplative to the conscious and deliberate. An element of surreal gives the viewer a different perspective on the subject, removing the literal and getting down to the essence of conveying the energy of the subject. For me, the image begins when the work goes beyond merely representing reality and enters the realm of personal expression. My methods are meant to be intentional, whether in the camera or post processing.

Above the Clouds





High above the clouds, one has time to reflect...about all sorts of things. When I was a child, I used to fly with my parents and they would always let me have the window seat. I used to imagine that I would jump out of the plane and land on the puffy clouds. I thought the clouds looked so comfortable...like a pillow. I wanted to be "queen of the sky" and my queendom would be the earth!!! I was dressed like Eloise of the Plaza :):):) what a vivid image that was! My reflection today on this plane...just let me get a few winks of sleep!
