I’m an experimenter – one of my favorite processes is to take what I have already created and see how it can be transformed.

Some originate from sculpture, photographed and digitally processed

Some originate from a bad photo – lol – I have found over many years of creating – the best transformations come from the worst photos. Moral of the story – never throw away a bad photo.

Even bad art or mistakes and failures can turn into cherry blossoms. Just allow the process to unfold and wala a new discovery.
