From the Artist, “With a strong emphasis on nature  and architecture, my art focuses heavily on documenting the ethereal interplay of light, shadow, and transient weather patterns through black and white photography. The process of crafting a black and white photo is revelatory, drawing the eye to unnoticed lines, curves, and shadows as the distraction of color is stripped away. Through this process, the banal is revealed as unique and even those who work and live near the art's subject can become explorers as they notice new details for the first time.”
