Abstract
Beauty abounds in Nature; A clear night sky, cloud formations, flowing water, growing plants, and fossils embedded in stone. Any aspect of Nature that captures my attention and invites a closer work is inspirational to me. I attempt to observe as a child might, with the excitement of discovery and a sense of wonder. I am an explorer of what is right before my eyes. There are subtleties and details in Nature that are noticeable only after careful scrutiny. I select aspects of what I observe, and then incorporate them into my art. My curiosity has led me to view large and distant astronomical phenomena through telescopes, and fine organic structures visible only with a scanning electron microscope. I have walked in woods and prairie meadows, hiked in the mountains, and even braved all the dangers an active imagination can create in order to scuba dive among the reefs.
