Bio

I’m from a family of talented artists, musicians and writers, but could never make my brain and fingers work together for any of those skills – thus my tagline, “Some of us just can’t draw.” The camera gives me a view into the world that is sometimes impressionistic, sometimes real. It allows me to “see” something, then take it home and bring out either the original vision or something entirely new in post-processing. I don't call myself a nature photographer, but most of my photography is done outdoors. I live in Colorado Springs, Colorado, at the foot of Pikes Peak, and close to a variety of contrasting landscapes – from the “14ers” to the plains, from mountains to desert, from high country to rolling hills, from thick forests to shortgrass prairie lands. My husband and I frequently explore these areas, and they’ve provided a number of my favorite images. I’ve shared many of my images in local, national and international competitions and shows, and my work has been published in magazines, newsletters and other outlets. I’ve also had images shown in both physical and online galleries and venues. I’m glad to be able to share my art with you!
