ENTRY DESCRIPTION
The summer sun has sunk below the horizon creating a wash of soft light that ripples over the surface of Lake Michigan. A small sapling clings to the rocky bed below the surface holding on for dear life. Against all odds it has staked its claim on life here in the great lake, proving to the world that its a survivor.

AUTHOR
My work is not just an artistic expression; it is a holy commune between the soul and the fabric of life. It’s a space that when entered awakens my consciousness and like the unconditional, unspoken love between a mother and her newborn child, it is an invisible energy that connects me with my true self. Seeking not to capture but convey the world that I witness. Striving not to take but to engage, through a collaborative effort with my subject. Cooperating to convey a sense of beauty or vast reflection. Distilling a single moment or span of time into a single frame.Although I seek to share my experiences and awaken others through my work, what I do, I do first for myself. With an innate desire to explore, ramble and escape societal conformities, my work has provided me with sanctuary in an often- overwhelming and intrusive world. For me its quite like John Lennon’s “There’s A Place”, through my art I can escape inside my mind and seek refuge from the suffocating cacophony of modern times. Alone with my camera I seek out quiet solitude, minimal stimuli, and awareness of my fundamental senses.
