Flora is a selection of images I have created to reflect our mutual existence as life forms on the same fragile planet, cycling through similar life cycles. Henry David Thoreau taught me how to look at nature, and the microcosm of nature (i.e. nature up close). This is where we learn about living in a “natural way”. It is very Zen in that it reflects the challenge of living in harmony with the natural flow of life itself.

Life begins where the heavens meet the earth. The horizon line is our first measurement of the planet. It provides balance, stability, and wonderment for what might lie beyond.  The nature of the Florida peninsula centers around the weather as it interplays with the area’s land, water, sky, and flora, creating a rare beauty that can shift from sedate and friendly to powerful and threatening. The flatness of the terrain forces the horizon line to become an essential compositional element separating the land and water from the sky. This is the terroir for my creative spirit as I work to interpret this place.
