Two Old Birds

Artist Statement

Nearly, every day, I go for a walk--sometimes in nature and sometimes on city streets.
To stay engaged in the walk, I look around for something I haven’t seen before or
something I have seen before in a different light. An object or many objects may catch
my attention. If I have time, I arrange them and take a picture with my camera phone.
Other times, I bring the objects (leaves, sticks, acorns) home and do the arrangement
there. Then I take a picture with my big camera or my phone camera. For the images
in this show, I raided my daughter’s roses for materials for “The Two Old Birds.” For
“The hipsters had a great day at the beach, “ I used rose hips from my garden and took
them to the beach.
