Art has always played a big role in my life. While I have a background in classical painting and drawing my true passion lies in capturing moments through my camera lens. My approach diverges from traditional, representational photography and leans toward a more painterly look. During the pandemic I began experimenting with underwater photography. One day when my model failed to show up I brought some flowers into the water with me. I was immediately captivated. The transformative qualities of the shimmering blue water created a kaleidoscope of colors and wonderful abstract compositions. I was immediately hooked and I've been playing with flowers and water ever since.
