A rust-colored bloom unfurls itself in deepening rings of ember and wine, its heart lit with a soft, secret glow.
Silvered leaves stretch wide like waiting wings, while delicate antennae rise above them. Grounded by twin green stems sits a muted, textured background with a translucent rectangle framing the bloom like a specimen case...reinforcing the transformation of plant into insect.

"Fairytale" "Everything you look at
can become a fairytale
and you can get a story
from everything you touch." -Hans Christian Andersen

A quiet world where shadows breathe, silver coins drift like secrets, and koi slip between what’s seen and what’s imagined. Nothing here reveals itself at once… and that’s the lure of it. ✨🐟🌿

Feeling especially thankful for the bountiful blooms that keep finding their way into my studio—real, imagined, and everything in between. ✨🌸
Each one becomes a tiny character in the little worlds I love to build.

“Fog curls through the hollow like breath from an unseen mouth.” 🌕🍂
A black cat slips between the shadows. A crow waits on a weathered bench, whispering secrets to the night.
Somewhere, just beyond the veil, the world tilts toward the strange and the beautiful.
Happy Halloween. 🖤✨

In this three-week workshop, join me in my magical “garden of delights” floral composites, where I will show participants how to create composites that give the illusion of a new reality using Photoshop and images created from your iPhone or digital camera. During each hands-on two-hour session, I will illuminate the ins and outs of my inventive techniques, sharing the tools that enable you to produce visual magic tricks. And just as it is with any magic trick, those techniques must be flawless or the illusion is lost!

Using creative Photoshop strategies that make your composites more engaging, I will explore ways to use visualization, light, coloring, and blending modes. I will examine special apps and plugins specifically geared toward compositing. Whether you are new to compositing or want to expand the skills you already have, you will come away from this workshop with an expansive virtual tool chest and the know-how to assemble your own creative masterpieces.

“Cosmos Forever” — I created this piece while noticing that my eyesight was beginning to sharpen again, colors and details becoming more vivid than I've felt in a long time. 🌸✨ Seeing each delicate Cosmos flower with new clarity felt like rediscovering the world—soft pinks, golden yellows, deep maroons, and gentle whites all glowing a little brighter. It’s amazing how vision, like memory, can come back into focus.

A haunting face emerges through fractured planes, layered with ginkgo leaves and shifting blocks of color. Fragmented yet whole—this double vision portrait blurs memory, identity, and dream. Nature’s delicate forms thread through the distortion, reminding me of resilience in the surreal.
