From time to time I will also share the creations of other Artists that light up my sense of wonder with their offerings. Perhaps a rare interview or two will pop up here, as well.
At my core, I am Art.

Much of my 3-dimensional Art, too, is based on the stories, myths, and experiences of humanity as a whole. These photographic collages, however, are intimate. They speak to my own challenges, triumphs, desires, and strength . Many of…
