Artist Statement Draft

So many of us spend the majority of our lives behind walls and separated from the natural world. Whenever I get the chance to step outside, my wonder and amazement at nature is manifested in the photographs I create. It is almost as if I can make up for the lost time by getting as close as possible using my camera. Whether it is the form or color of growing things that I capture, these photographs are an expression of my interaction with the natural world around me.
