Reflections of shimmery light, the glow of a gas lamp in New Orleans on a steamy night, the reflection of a silvery moon on water that is my MUSE. It is the way light travels through a dense fog or twinkles from the stars above that move me to pick up my camera. It is an urge I can simply not pass up, but it is within this space that I find the blur. That moment between excitement, reflection and knowing. I would say it's kind of like the philosophy of being, but with the added verb: action. I feel that most of my work reflects that very instant, the moment of inspiration. It is in that moment that the muse hurdles a lightning bolt in my direction and I have to capture its light at warp speed. It would be great if I always carried my good camera, but I am a 21st century artist and my "camera" comes in many forms these days. My point & shoot or my phone for example. Why pass up an opportunity to share the light with you, dear reader? It is my mission to capture the blur the light and send it your way.
Love and glitter my friends. Love and glitter.
