I have been taking pictures since boyhood, but my current preoccupations are with transforming photographs of flowers, stone, metal, wood, and the sky into mandala-like images and photographing the sea and sky on the coastline north of Boston. This work is inspired by the paintings of Georgia O'Keeffe and Claude Monet, the nature photographs of Andreas Feininger, and the flower images of Harold Feinstein, with whom I briefly studied.

Making these images feels, to me, like I am in wordless conversation with natural elements far more profound than anything I could create myself. The experience of photographing and of editing is reminiscent of meditation.

Currently, I run a blog called Flower Mandalas on the spirituality portal Beliefnet.com, where I hope to promote the use of art as a means for healing and personal transformation — the primary purposes it has served for me.
