About

Ever since I was a little girl watching my Dad make magic with his Polaroid Land, I have been fascinated by art with photography.

As an inner-city teenager wondering what to do with my life – I felt that offices and factories were not going to be huge players in my personal story.

The trick was figuring out what girls do when they don’t want to do what everyone else is doing.

Only the arts – and in particular – photography made sense to me. So I studied traditional camera & darkroom techniques at the Ohio State University throughout the late 70′s.

When the end of my stint at OSU coincided with an incredibly “Arbusesque” series of events, I headed west to Los Angeles in 1980 (for some fun in the sun) -  becoming a reproduction photographer, and churning out 35mm slide shows at a Commercial Film Lab.

By night – I experimented with photograms, double exposures, and hand-painting directly on photographic prints. I liked L.A. (a lot, at times) but I didn’t love it. And ultimately, it didn’t love me back.

So in 1990, I headed to Las Vegas – and here I am in the Nevada desert.

These days I am having fun experimenting with digital and traditional photo processes.

The truth is, I prefer spending my time in Nature shooting landscapes, wildlife, cityscapes, found objects.

Then I can retreat to my studio, turn on some great music – and let things happen…
