I'm a photographer, artist and intern psychotherapist...

I photograph lines and textures found in unexamined, neglected, or taboo areas. Initially created through human agency – such as the scars that result from surgery – these patterns are then modified by uncontrollable natural forces. Scars stretch and grow with the body; metal rusts, paint peels and stone cracks. We are left with lines and textures of infinite detail and beauty.

I have a blog where I post my art and photos:
