Bio
I am a published poet and photographer, who dabbles in art. I live in the shadow of the Rocky Mountains, where I raise children, raise vegetables and try to live in the moment, even if it is not a good moment.

Cascade of Orchids

This is the first orchid I've had that has bloomed long and well.  Love the flesh-like look of petal backs, like delicate veins in skin.

 

 Black and White Orchid

A zebra's stripes at its center and soft ice petals.  Close-up, it is a landscape to be traveled.

 

 Lily Bud

There is one seam of green that will burst open.  Something must break, for the new to emerge.  There are little tender hairs on the closed petals like the hairs on an arm.

 
Pictures of Lilies

Like flames, it burst contained as wildfires raged on the mountains above us.  Our little contained flames, nestled in the coolness of green.
