BE WELL
A love letter to myself and to the ongoing journey of sadness, joy, betrayal, and hope.

For many years I have shared my thoughts, feelings, and remembrances using a variety of 19th century photographic processes to document a simple subject: botanicals.

My main source of inspiration is my garden. It is my sanctuary… my love. It is where I reconnect with nature, the soil, and the feral child I once was.

Be Well is a group of images that are from the past and present, and which hint at the portal to my future. The work represents the conclusion to the lengthiest chapter of my life and the commencement of a new one. You bear witness to my grief, love, doubt, and to the courage to move forward.

My light is shining brighter… Be Well.
