I love to play with light in my images.
"I find nature, especially flowers, to be very sensual and I try to capture that sensuality in my work.

I use only black backgrounds because,to me, black gives a dramatic and mysterious look to the work. I especially love the way black intensifies the beauty and gentleness of an orchid, flower or shell, yet at the same time, has a powerful feel.

I enjoy working with nature. There is a tranquility in a garden that is so comforting.
So come walk through my garden and let me share its beauty with you.

I have begun exploring the intricacy of a shell formations. The shapes, color and patterns are amazing.
