For many years I have loved the photographic work of others, especially images of people. I began photographing after retirement 14 years ago. Since that time I have taken classes, learned to use my camera and learned to use software programs in lieu of the darkroom. I find the work absorbing, challenging and fun. I have travelled with other photographers to Morocco, Mexico including the Yucatan and other parts of Mexico and the United States. As I've traveled, I had an opportunity to connect with people from other cultures. I plan to continue to improve my technical skills and to expand my work with portraits of people. I have successfully entered juried shows and had my first solo show in August 2023 at Viewpoint Photographic Art Center in Sacramento, California.
