Lake View Cemetery
If your ever in Cleveland Ohio, you must visit Lake View Cemetery. Not only are some famous people buried there but it is an outdoor museum. Filled with beautiful statues and wonderful trees and flowers. I loved it and cant wait to go back to see more!
Here is some of the beauty that I captured.

My Artist's Bio and Statement
Artist's Bio
Since I can remember, I have always wanted to be an artist. I remember creating landscapes making more than half the page the grass using my favorite crayon color, green. Growing up I tried different things. Sketching, drawing, even tried to paint once. But I never felt that I was any good or truly an artist. It wasnt till my twenties that I discovered something in myself. I started taking pictures. For years I used my photographs as pallettes to create digital paintings. I finally felt as if I was an artist, and not just any artist. A very good one.
Now, focusing on photography, I am exploring the world around me and my abilities to see things differently. Focusing on the emotions, feelings, and thoughts by things we see everyday and things that touch our lives.
Artist's Statement
My photographs cause you to look at things in a different light. Capturing the essence of the subject as well as the feeling behind it.
My hopes are that people will walk away from one of my pieces, seeing things differently and hopefully opening their eyes to what is around them. No matter how bad we think the world is, there is so much beauty around us that needs to be embraced.
Art is not a way of life. It is life.
