This Sunday in the Orchard

2012-01-16T18:33:00.000-08:00

A lovely way to spend a Sunday -- outdoors, picking fruit, surrounded by the scent of orange blossoms and friendly folks. Organized by FOOD FORWARD of Los Angeles, young and old came together to make sure this delicious fruit made it to the homes of those who would like to have it. The Mandarin oranges we harvested went to the Oxnard Food Bank and BACKYARD BOUNTY of Santa Barbara.

FOR THE OFFICE

2011-12-19T12:10:00.001-08:00

I recently sold an agave triptych I created in 2006 to a therapist for her office. She felt these images would help create a sense of calm for her clients. I was delighted to revisit this work and know that it conveyed the feeling I had when I created it. I am reminded of Rachel Carson's words.

"In contemplating the exceeding beauty of this earth, I have found calmness and courage. ... There is something infinitely healing in the repeated refrains of nature."

2011-05-30T08:59:00.001-07:00

I've been photographing Blake's (aka Pinky) life since she was three weeks old. It has been a delight to document her development, her interests, her pleasures. We've shared lots of good times and laughter, walks to the lake, playing at the beach and just hanging out at home. Thank you, Amy, for allowing me to create portraits of Pinky through her ages and stages.

What an enormous pleasure it has been creating portraits of Blake (aka Pinky) since she was three weeks old and now to visit her at "school." Season's is a unique environment with ponies and goats, tubs and toys, an enriching environment where the children spend their days choosing their activities and having fun.
