As I looked at my photographs of agave thorns, I decided I wanted a more painterly, more impressionistic feel to these images. This is what I came up with, a look that takes me away from a straight, forthright view of the plant to more of a glimpse, a glance, a “feeling” about the agave. I realize that this softer look won’t appeal to everyone, but for me, this morning, I’m loving the look.

I'm a photographer, writer, educator based on Whidbey Island in the Pacific Northwest, specializing in photomontage work, combining photos I've taken of rust, walls, peeling paint, birds, postage stamps, trees, etc. into images that are completely new, different, and often weird. I also create physical collages, then find myself photographing parts of them to include in my photomontages. It's crazy, but it's fun! My career has encompassed writing guidebooks (primarily about where to photograph in California), newsletters (guides for photographers about where to photograph in the United States), leading photo workshops, and conducting online classes.
