Biography
My passion has always been to express myself as an artist, recognizing the influence of my late mother, Marjorie Mckee, an abstract expressionist painter. I grew up hearing her friends such as Pollock, deKooning and Hoffman talk about the spiritual aspects of art.
I used these early lessons as my basis for creating a new vision of nature, one which utilizes large and medium format photography along with advances in digital technology to create a new vision of nature. I hope this new vision will engage the viewer to re-look at nature at this critical time of earth changes. No longer do we just see nature as it is but in a more complex view, to say stop and look more closely.
I start with an organic form and through digital technology I create a “gate” that can take us beyond the visible metaphor of this world, to construct as Miro described it, “...a doorway to another world”.
