"A thing of beauty can evoke an emotional reaction within us
and cause us to feel at peace, even if just for a moment.
Therein lies the “why” for doing what I do.
I love finding beauty in the world and re-imaging it for you
to see." – Roka
After a brief love affair with close-up photography in the
80’s, I hung up my camera – due to the prohibitive costs of film
photography. I
ventured into jewelry, fused glass, product illustration and graphic
design –
always looking for an outlet for my creative spirit. When quality
digital
photography surfaced I was inspired to again pick up the camera, this
time
armed with deep skills in PhotoShop.
I am primarily a nature photographer and I love to get very
close to my subject. Although I sometimes leave my work untouched, I
love to
create art using my photographs as primary elements of design. From to
real-life depiction to the
abstract, I use the camera to reveal the beauty and mysteries often
hidden from
the human eye, or to simply tell a story.
