More from the artist:

I create miniatures. Sometimes I use my miniatures in different nature settings to get a creative photograph. Sometimes I use them for making a little rooms or displays. I also love to find unusual patterns and pictures in nature. I have an alphabet poster hanging in my kindergarten classroom made completely out of letters formed by tree roots along Rocky Mountain trails. I love when nature surprises me and I capture the image. Some of my favorite photos to take are patterns in sand after storms, swirling pollen, reflections in water and shadows. I also enjoy combining painting with photos. I sometimes collaborate with another artist and provide a black and white background photo that we paint color images onto the top of. I have shown work in six art shows and had some of my miniatures pictures in a magazine.
