I have been taking photographs since I received my first camera (a boxy old Polaroid) at the age of eight. I am entirely self-taught and follow no rules other than my own. I am currently a stay-at-home Mom and child care provider,so photography has been mostly a hobby thus far. I enjoy photographing nature and places of interest that I come across in my travels. I recently began experimenting with digital art and I have been having some interesting results...mostly good, I hope! I plan to keep learning and evolving in the digital art and mixed media...more
