All my efforts take place in the studio where I have creative control. These images were created by using glasses and bottles placed on a light. I then apply Photoshop to make an image rather than take an image. My motto is, "When our eye and our heart are aligned, the beauty of the world reveals itself."

Artist Statement
By revealing the design and art in botanicals, we can still see the earth’s wonders through photography and witness what nature once looked like. This beauty sustains us in ways that can be experienced through the details found in botanicals. My fear is that these botanicals will not be available in the future due to climate change.
