Artist Statement:

promotional and editorial
use). I also design note cards
from my photos as well as make

bevy of photographic subjects
if I didn't have a mind to
step into the outdoors. I am
now married and reside in
Illinois, just south of
Chicago. I use my Nikon and a
Canon digital camera to relax
and wind down from the day's

that time she juried into the
Tri-State Arts Association and
received the following
comments: "Good capture of
sunset...like framing of trees
