A photographic artist who lives within the beauty of natural light, I thrive on these precious moments where peace, love, joy, and the soul glimmers. My love of light and form has not wavered since receiving my first Kodak instamatic many moons ago.

I continue to seek for precious moments, inner soul, unexpected places are all what I strive to bring out… I hope enjoy my photographic journey…

    Exquisite! and not even broken!!

  • It is a wonder when they roll up on the beach intact! You find so many pieces and parts but on the northern end of the OBX you do find from time to tme hole shells. This last visit I believe I brought home 5, the time before 3 whole ones, and before that none. So you never know! You can hear them “clanking” together in the wash and you hope one will roll up. Amazingly beautiful!
