Hello! I'm a fine art photographer. I have many travel, wildlife, and food images that I've started to upload to my galleries here, and some of them I'm adding additional textures to, like hand-created pen and ink stipple patterns to create unusual grain. I'm also working on a new type of repetitive design, like mandalas (but I'd prefer to call them kaleidoscope designs). I often plan paintings in my head, of very small things like insects reproduced very large on canvas. I plan on starting those next year.
About me:
I'm just your typical Christian, dietary vegetarian, previously nomadic, ridiculously creative, vintage dress collecting, tarantula-loving, taxidermist's daughter that can honestly say she once lived in a van down by the river. Really.
Things I am very fond of: my quirky husband Walt, combat boots, my weird tomcat and pet spiders, baby raccoons (I had two as pets once), almond patties (it's a Dutch heritage thing), jumping out of perfectly good airplanes, contemplating quantum physics, knife necklaces, blaring opera music while driving, baking bread from scratch, creating tasty vegetarian/vegan recipes (for my health), eating odd Asian foods I cannot pronounce, foreign words (I'm learning Spanish currently, Hebrew is next), shooting 1920's submachine guns, fashions and antiques from the late Victorian times, those three months in 2001 I lived in a minivan in Wyoming, my future plans to cage dive with great white sharks, the day I walked a tiger on a leash, and the night I shook hands with Chuck Norris. In the immortal words of Dave Barry, I am not making this up.
