As an artist with a full-time job that I’m also very dedicated to, I have to find ways to stay sharp in my artistic practice.  I call it creative yoga.  Time for getting out and about photographing is not always plentiful.  I usually just photograph wherever I am in my travels, which is how the Newspaper Series came to be.

This little side project centered around a playful searching for wind turbines has been fun.  It reminded me of the days when I was an art student and the only way I could see the world was if I hopped in my car, or my boyfriend’s car and drove off onto the open road.  I’ve seen much of the US that way.  Since moving to Buffalo, I’ve made it a regular practice to drive around WNY during Fall months photographing the fiery landscapes bursting with crimson, orange and gold.  With winter looming and more travel away from the area ahead, I may have to wait until next Fall to pick up from here.  I very much look forward to it.
