Welcome!

I’ve always been creative – of sorts. I get that from my mom. She could create almost anything. Me? I can’t even draw stick figures! However, in my wildest dreams I could not have imagined when I first picked up a camera as a young adult I would have a website, thousands of images, artwork in 12 countries on 4 continents, countless art fairs and exhibits, and a handful of awards along the way. But that’s not my story… this is.  To witness creation and worship its Creator.  As you poke around my website I hope you not only see the beauty of creation, but also the beauty of the One who created it all.

You can find out a little bit more about me and my creative work sprinkled throughout the pages. If you’d like to know more send me a message via the form below. 

I do hope you’ll stick around for a few minutes and enjoy the work in my galleries and visual blogs at the bottom of the page.

Oh, one last thing… you’ve probably noticed most of my photos the last few years are of birds with some butterflies thrown in. I have 5 bird galleries on the menu above and in 2022 I began a monthly blog where I record some of what I see. Just scroll down and you’ll see what I mean.

I have over 7,000 bird portraits of 150 species which includes; bluebird, cardinal, woodpeckers, goldfinch, hummingbird, blue jay, owl, warblers of all kind, wrens, titmouse, thrush, mockingbird, phoebe, tanager, oriole, fly catchers, birds of prey, and many others.

I'd love to hear from you.
