Artist Statement: They say a picture is worth a thousand words, but my photographs strive for more. I document life--capturing emotions and provoking thought. My pictures serve as a mirror, not only reflecting the truth in existence, but also providing the viewer a glimpse back through my lens, past the viewfinder, and straight into my spirit/soul.

Behind Bars

The-Gate.jpg

Sometimes the most interesting photographs don't answer a question--they pose one. And a truly great photo may raise several. This photograph uses converging vertical and horizontal lines and the power of the rule of thirds to force the viewer to engage in some serious self-reflection: "On which side of the bars do I stand?" "Am I the prisoner or the guard?" "Is there any way out?" "Is there any way in?"
