Photography has always been a part of me, although I have never been that person, who always has a camera in hand, snapping photos of friends and family. I am THAT person off in the corner or wandering away, snapping photos of the obscure. 

My photographic taste is a bit eclectic in that I am drawn to florals, color, nature, and people, in particular street people, as everyone has a story. My style is a bit quirky, as you will notice with my Flowers in Their Prime gallery, which are..... dead flowers.......really!  In their "prime" state they are more vibrant and I love all the wrinkles and textures.  My aging self really appreciates and enjoys florals at this stage.  Ralph Waldo Emerson is quoted as saying, the earth laughs in flowers. Well, I think that the earth not only laughs, but also smirks, thinks, cries and smiles in flowers!

I am inspired when I interact with other artists and consequently have found myself becoming more active in my local art league.  I am on the Board of the Conroe Art League, serving as Secretary.  I continue to evolve as a photographic artist and will never stop learning, growing and improving.......and I LOVE that!  

I am a lover of gardening, in particular flowers (I must have my hands in the dirt), Diet Coke, chocolate chip cookie dough (which I can whip up in 4 minutes and 17 seconds), red velvet cake (made with my Momma's recipe), New Orleans (where I grew up just a softball throw away from the Mississippi River), the beach, LSU (graduate of LSU School of Nursing, and am a Registered Nurse, Geaux Tigers), my tight circle of friends, and last but not least, my family.  I cherish the time I get to spend with my grown children and my bonus children, often wondering about, when exactly time started flying by.  My sweet, kind and silly grandsons bring out the fun in me.  I am so fortunate to have found my happily ever after and especially appreciate that he clicks his camera shutter just as often as me on vacation.
