Also note the special texture I added to the rocks ,It adds a forth demention to the image!

This is a beautiful area above Lake Dillon, looking northwest.

This a painting of the breath taking area of Sedona Arizona,! The challenge of painting red sandstone and the prolific rock formations of Sedona and Oakcreek Canyon is one not to be taken lightly!

Near the Irish Hill, a great place to roam in the fall.

Driving to work in the morning, I sometimes take the back roads. September mornings, the warm earth, cold air and morning sun combine to make some dramatic scenery.

It was the kind of morning in August that compels you to get up before the sunrise, even if you don't have to.

Taken at Hidden Lake Gardens in Michigan. The Orten effect is a process by which the color is intensified and the sharp version of the photo is layered with a blurred filter, creating a dreamy, rich look.

Again, that morning when i had been enticed out of bed by the low-lying fog and had almost given up when I came across this amazing field.

On my way to school one morning, I watched this sunrise develop before me.

January 17, 2007. River Raisin, Washtenaw County, Michigan. The trees were covered with ice.

One morning in July I hauled my rear out of bed and went to shoot the early morning, low-lying fog as the sun came up through it. I was about down when I came across this field of orb weaver spider webs. I was in photo fanactic heaven!!

It's not easy to really show how beautiful snow can be. I passed this drift on my way to work and saw the possibilities. It's emphasized a little with photoshop, but this is pretty much how it looked in the morning sun.

An April storm in Bridgewater, Michigan.

Thanksgiving of 2004 we had an early snow. I was out taking photos all day. This was the grand finale. River Raisin, Bridgewater County, Michigan

Circle of Life Series: My inspiration for this series comes from living life to it’s fullest and repeatedly seeing how the good and bad in life always come full circle. Gustav Klimt is another inspiring force behind my use of circles and other shapes in my paintings. His ability to take unrelated shapes and interpose them to create a painting of beauty and mastery is enthralling and inspirational. “The nature of God is a circle of which the center is everywhere and the circumference is nowhere.” Empedocles

I think the visual says it all...

I created this for my son Josh who forgot that it was Mother's Day last Sunday and my birthday the week before. And for all you mum's out there that were forgotten please feel free to send this to your children to jog their memory! There's always next year I guess...

My visual description of depression and loneliness

Have you ever been in one of those artistic funks where nothing, and I mean nothing, will come to mind to create? This is the longest stretch I have had without being able to think or create anything. I think I now know how writers feel when they get ‘blocked’! So the only thing that came to mind was to let myself know that ‘Art Is Hard’. Very hard indeed… Thanks for stopping by

I have been trying to have one of these for a while now and nothing appears! Instead I decided to create what it might feel like if I had one! Still no luck though … I’ll just keep hoping…

For my family. I think this is one of the most labour intensive images I have ever done but one of the most rewarding. It took hours to riffle through old family photos, some that I had never seen before, but it was such a joy to be able to still have such wonderful memories. Gone but not forgotten - I love you all

This is so not my style and I'm not sure why I even created it this way but oh well! This depicts my New Years resolution. I have tried so many times to stick with them year after year but I always fail and they are usually far beyond my reach. So this year I am choosing something that is possible - to stay grounded and not loose sight of the here and now. Thanks for stopping by!

This is a bit of a personal piece but I won't go into what it's really about. I'm sure lots of people will be able to relate to this though but make of it what you will. Thanks for stopping by and taking a look!

Every day that I was back home in the U.K. the sky seemed to dominate the landscape beyond belief. The cloud formations were ever changing - from foreboding storms to peaceful serenity, all within the space of an hour. This particular image made me feel that the universe was full of fury and wrath. Even the seagulls seemed to sense that all was not right with the world.

I decided to create this piece because I have been sitting in all day waiting for a package from Fed Ex to be delivered. You know, the ones where you have to sign for it and they give you a 10 hour window for delivery. So I didn't want to waste my time doing menial things like cleaning the dust bunnies and doing laundry. I think this was time well spent myself!

Mother nature at her best. It's amazing how beautiful and jewel -like a few drops of rain on a leaf can look. Straight from my camera (cropped) as nature intended!
