Artist Statement
My personal photography practice was renewed during the pandemic, as I found myself taking daily walks in parkland and waterways to keep my mind, body and soul entertained and energized. On my walks I am treated to the surprises and soothing power of nature. I capture fleeting moments that evoke my own strong emotions – wonder, joy, reliance, possibilities, contemplation and gratitude. My hope is that you will linger on these images and that they will transport you to a peaceful, hopeful, inspiring place.
