"I attempt to fashion my photographs as visual poetry conveying what I see and feel in hopes of touching another's soul through the art of photography. Sometimes I pair my photos with lines of original verse...Photography has remained my passion for many years because it can do what no other artistic medium can—with light it paints an evident truth from the eye to the heart, mind and soul. IOn the same moment, photography can stop the world, paint the world and preserve the mlnute."
