Many years ago, when I was 19 years old, I was walking down a street in Plymouth, England. To me, the street seemed grey, the houses, row after row, all seemed the same - grey. Even the trees seemed grey. My companion was a young man whom I had recently met. He turned to me and said, "Oh, look at the beautiful flower growing out of the wall."
All I had seen had been the grey wall .... and when he saw only the flower, he reminded me that there was more. I knew I needed to remember to see the beauty. I asked him - "How could you see the flower, when I was only able to see the grey wall?"
And, I learned! I learned to see beauty everywhere I look, in every leaf, in every blade of grass, in every shaft of sunlight, in everything around me and in everyone I meet.
It is this love that I share through my images, whether paintings or photographs.
I am an artist and Qigong instructor (see www.alohaqigong.com) living and loving life in Hawaii. My paintings and photographs reflect my love of the land, people and also of the energy around me.
My images are available not only as prints, but also as a quality line of greeting cards. Email me - [email protected] or fill out the contact page to order.
