My first ever solo show was held at Halliday's Winery, located in Lake Milton, Ohio.

Artist Statement:

Art is an adventure.

Photography opens a door for me to new ways of seeing and sharing. As an artist, I live to travel in the great outdoors.

While there’s no place like home, each new photo gives me a new place to live.

Many of my landscapes come from Ohio and include both representational and abstract work. I have a fondness for nature that often shows up in images of water, trees, and snow. Heightened color expresses my enthusiasm of being in the moment. Open space shows my wistful reaching for freedom toward the horizon and beyond.

My artwork has been on display in juried exhibits at several art galleries, three libraries, and accepted by three museums:

~ All Things Oz Museum, Chittenango, NY
~ BAYarts, Bay Village, OH
~ Brunswick Community Library, sponsored by Brunswick Art Works
~ Butler Institute of American Art, Youngstown, Ohio
~ Highlands Discovery Museum, Ashland, Kentucky
~ Manlius Library, Manlius, NY
~ Market Street Art Center, Lockport, NY
~ Porter Public Library exhibit sponsored by the Westlake-Westshore Arts Council
~ Niagara Arts and Cultural Center, Niagara Falls, NY
~ Zanesville Museum of Art, Zanesville, OH

Saying, "Art mirrors life, life mirrors art."
