Like many I am inspired by the great natural beauty of the coastal landscapes the southeast. Draped in exquisite light, like the Spanish moss hanging in weeping garlands, the marsh islands, beaches, and maritime forest offer a serenity that I find refreshing.
In creating these images I am trying to share both my love of this environment, and its natural resources, with the intent to rekindle within the viewer the importance of protecting this disappearing landscape.
