"My father was a lifelong Eastman Kodak employee who gave me my first camera when I was seven. Nothing much happened for the next 50 years – but then the evolution of the digital age, coupled with my moving from Dallas to New Mexico, finally ignited my passion for photography. It was no surprise that the beauty of our terrain made my heart soar. My artistic goal for landscape photography became clear: to convey the thrill and capture what is in my heart when witnessing the wonderful scenes of our state and the rest of the Southwest. To try to communicate what I feel—rather than simply what my camera clinically records—requires all of the various tools available today, and I use them without restraint. My most recent accomplishment was the publishing by the Corrales Art Center of the book, "18 Years in the Village- A Photographic Tour of Corrales”, consisting of my best photographs of Corrales and its people."
