Piece description from the artist
I was driving around Kvaloya, an island north of Tromso, Norway, after dark for well over an hour, trying to find a place to stop to see if the Northern Lights would come out, and I found a beach that looked promising with a place to pull over – as soon as I got out of the car I saw them starting so I raced around to get my gear together and had an amazing night. I went to drop a pin in my phone as I was leaving so I could find it again – and noticed it was called "Aurora View Point"! What were the chances?
Formally trained in Mathematics, Computer Science, and Fine Art (left + right brained they say), by day (and nights) I specify and design software for non-profits to help them increase their program capacity and efficiency through better use of technology. Whew! Yes, I try to be a do-gooder and make an impact in whatever small way I can. Which means that by vacation and weekends I take photographs, which is my current passion.
I am also a ceramic artist, woodworker, welder, and I work with an amazing, passionate group of artists called Five Ton Crane, to create large-scale community art as well. In my "spare time" which is hard to come by, I am an avid knitter, rock climber, and gardener.
I hope my love of the outdoors comes through in my Nature Photography – living in the Bay Area in California make me one of the most fortunate people in the world. The nature right outside my door is breathtaking, my garden bountiful year-round, and the weather wonderful.
