Abstract Photography to me is a passion for recording fractions in time, which evoke a deep response in myself, and the viewer. The response can be one of wonder, love, hate, laughter, or camaraderie. While living and photographing in the gentle South, I am most concerned with and intrigued by portraying her people. My intent is to explore man, his familial characteristics, his sense of community, and his relationship with those around him.
