PHOTOGRAPHY

I am a perpetual explorer of energy and its flows through life, discovering new awarenesses of myself, our world and universe...sometimes even recording that through photography. My home is in northwestern Wisconsin where I moved in 1980, with my husband, two children, a dog and a cat. Planted amidst 40 acres of fields, woods and water we are immersed in nature's abundance, beauty, wild creatures, and changing seasons. Sharing this richness now with grandchildren, amplifies the joy and appreciation for all of it! I have always loved to travel, discover new sights and experiences yet am happy to return to this place and the energy that sustains it. Taking and making pictures entered my life when I received a Kodak “Brownie” as a kid. In the early 1970's I bought my first SLR camera and turned an old coal bin in our basement into a darkroom. Weaving throughout frequent twists and turns of needs, wants and curiosities that life is, photography has served me in fun and imaginative ways. My expression with it evolves as I am intuitively drawn into moments, places or events felt more than seen, perceived more than known. I capture what speaks to me. Never quite clear where I'm being led, I follow a pull, and enjoy unraveling the adventure and my relationship with what presents itself.
