Artist Statement

I would describe myself as a minduful and emotional landscape photographer. I value my time capturing photographs as an opportunity to be intuitive, introspective and comfortably alone. Although I visit common places that become very special to me, I prefer to think of place as a state of mind. The images I make are personally contemplative, most often enigmatic, and thus are more of a general reflection of my personal psyche. The forest, its rivers and the sea speak to me about life in all of its glory and all of its sadness. In those natural places I sense the existence of parallels with the puzzles and mysteries of my own life. I am especially pleased if viewers find their own personal connection with the images I have made.
