Whimsical Pumpkins
“Which one is prettier?. Which one has the most intricate design?. Which one is redder?. It is impossible to talk in superlative terms when each pumpkin is of extreme beauty and originality.
This vast array at a farmstand made me spend hours rejoicing in the striking beauty of these simple yet graceful round, whimsical plants.”
Artist statement
My photographs are not enhanced; they represent the true nature and colours of the subjects as captured by the lens. I never lure my animated subjects to come close to me: spontaneity is the key.
