I investigate the world with my camera, making notes, seeking interesting patterns and striking visual contrasts. I am drawn to both natural and urban landscapes as each evoke compelling questions about our lives and our place in the world. In my prints, I strive to retain the subtleties of ever-shifting light and color, as these give shape to a world that can be harsh, complicated and often sublime.
