ARTIST STATEMENT "Just for that sliver of time, for that precious moment, I unconsciously slip into that space in-between seeing, feeling, responding with new eyes from an awakened soul. These are the moments and photographs that take my breath away, freeze time and touch my heart. These are the moments I share to evoke a feeling, touch the viewer from the outside-in bringing a sense of awe, peace, healing, oneness, upliftment, inspiration and often a heightened sense of knowing and even insight. These are the images shared in this exhibition, The Spaces In-Between." ~Phoenix

Pictured above:
Top:  "Beatrice - Homage to Dali" 20x30 inches on metal. See more in the "Abstract Collection".
Story Behind the Image ~ Inspired by Salvador Dali’s “Beatrice,” Dante’s real muse and literary angelic guide through Paradise, Homage to Dali’s Beatrice reflects the dichotomy of women: strong yet gentle. Her firm profile epitomizes an exaggerated inner strength softened with silhouettes of birds among curling locks of hair. A living goddess, she’s one with nature – the world and herself. wearing her crown of roses graced by a hummingbird, who too is simultaneously strong, demur and at peace.
Bottom: "Disappearing Hemlock" 24x36 inches, metal. See more in the Great Smoky Mountains Collection.
Story Behind the Image ~ Captivated by the golden sun rays pass through the forest mixing with the warm scents of fall - all spice, cinnamon and lemon - I created this abstract image in camera. Later I learned that forests throughout the Smokies are undergoing a major ecological shift due to the die-off of millions of hemlocks caused by the hemlock woolly adelgid, a nonnative forest insect pest discovered in the park in 2002. Forestry experts say their loss will affect everything from stream temperatures to forest composition. Thankfully, the national park service is working tirelessly to save them. This story illustrates the inter-connectedness of all.
