Photography has become the art in the jar for me. I reach in a grab a sweet piece of life each time I view welcoming the explosion of beauty and color into my lens.

I've been blessed as a native, surrounded by a sometimes tortured earth, but always gifted by the enchantment that is--New Mexico. She's in my blood.

As a new photographer in an old soul, I am reborn to the surroundings through the lens.

The one thing I have learned most of all on this journey is to embrace the surroundings with passion and skill. I'm on a constant path of both. "It's all about the Violinist, not the Violin", my teacher once told me. He was spot on!
