Bio

I developed an appreciation for the outdoors and nature as a child on a farm in rural Alabama. As an only child, I spent many solitary years exploring local wood, stream, pasture and rock with a horse and dogs. I?ve always been a slow travel companion, looking to my feet for glimpses of mystery to catch my attention.My dialogue with photography began in Washington, DC at the National Geographic theater, watching the Explorer series every Tuesday for the six months I was working in the area. One particular episode sent me on a mission?to explore and experience the world like the Bartlett?s, an adventurous photographic duo capturing the last moments of the great desert lions on the Skeleton Coast of Namibia.After starting and co-owning a successful adventure travel and sports photography business for five years, I embarked on a path uniquely my own and reflective of my personal attraction to detail and macro work. I perceive the world through the macro lens?exploring texture, color, form and pattern. While it is not ordinary, my goal has been to make this miniature world more interesting and accessible.In graphic design, I strive for an equal desire to create simple, clean elegant design that reflects my interest in detail.My journey with watercolor began over 10 years ago and it has become an important staple in my artistic stable. I have worked with letterpress as an amateur for many years along with an interest in book arts.My art is my life…and I am lucky.
