Artist Statement  

I stand in awe of the sublime order and beauty found in the granite towers, secluded waterfalls, and the dawn's first light over faraway mountains and trees that have lived for three centuries. My journeys from the lands of Chile to the shores of Charleston have brought me face to face with countless surprising and unfamiliar wonders. In my attempts to capture these grand natural patterns, I have employed the enduring and unyielding nature of platinum palladium, infusing my work with the depth and richness of a 150-year-old archival printing process, a stark contrast to the fleeting and transient nature of our modern-day human existence.
