    Poem in Response

    Having read “Loved Like Roses“, written by the beautiful Holly Hunter, a very talented poetess and friend hailing from The Sunshine State – wherein love is nurtured and flourishes in a summer garden – I was inspired to write this poem in response…

    Flowing curves, under pen
    Laced of ink rippling wet
    Words converge, fresh with love
    Roses bloom in duet

  • Still Life Rose

    Using Affinity Photo software, I made the following modifications to this photograph of a pink rose: the image was straightened and cropped, then desaturated; a mask was added in order to paint back color into the rose; clarity was enhanced, and adjustments layers were used (white balance, vibrance, levels); I also included a faint glow effect and a textural overlay.

  • Poem of Gardens

    Poem of Gardens

    Having read a wonderful poem entitled “Connected Roots“, by poetess Michele Lee Sefton – where she highlights the life & beauty of a desert rose named Lady Banks – I was inspired to write this short poem…

    From separate places to common spaces
    In a garden tended by loving hand
    Plants and people of nature and nurture
    Sharing golden beauty across the land
