How about you? Not that it's important but I do have a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree, from the University of Texas at Austin, Hook 'em Horns, with my major in Studio Art/Photography. Although I don't really consider myself a traditional photographer, I thoroughly enjoy the Art of Photography.
I have always loved being out in nature and I truly adore every aspect of God's Creation ~ waterscapes, landscapes, and sunsets.
And like a Sunflower and as a Christian Photographer, who loves the Light especially in sunsets, my goal is to "Follow the Son" and hopefully encourage others to do the same...
I use my art photography to connect others to God's Beauty, Love, and Mercy through my daily inspiration with scripture, prayers, and meditations. My goal is to share what I have created in hopes that others will see God's beauty in nature and give Him glory.
The Beauty of the earth is God's creation calling us into a deeper relationship with Him
I was born in San Diego, CA but grew up in Joplin, MO and my family moved to TX when I was a teenager. My husband was also born in San Diego so after we were married we moved back and we've been here since 1991.
Being raised a nominal Christian by my grandmother, my commitment to God, and my knowledge of His love for me developed through the many hours of Art History classes in college (all Mother Mary's doing). The collection of Madonna and Child images truly captured my attention, and many times I thought to myself, "Jesus would have had a mother, wouldn't He?"
Above all, the images of Mary and the Angel Gabriel in the vast collection of “Annunciation” images were the most appealing to me. I became a Catholic Christian a few years after I graduated college, and was baptized and confirmed on the Feast of the Annunciation, March 25th, 1989. Who knew, right?
Healing (from my troubled past) and maturation in my relationship with God come from creating images For the Glory of God. My prayer is that you enjoy my captures of nature and Give Glory to God. View my complete Portfolio here on my Flickr account.

"Artists of the world, may your many different paths all lead to that infinite Ocean of beauty where wonder becomes awe, exhilaration, unspeakable joy. May you be guided and inspired by the mystery of the Risen Christ, whom the Church in these days contemplates with joy. ...may your Art help to affirm that true beauty which, as a glimmer of the Spirit of God, will transfigure matter, opening the human soul to the sense of the eternal." ~ Saint Pope John Paul II
"God is an Artist, and the Universe is His work of Art." ~ St. Thomas Aquinas
