About Me
I never pictured myself as an artist, so to speak. But I've always had a
passion for history and photography.  However, I was never fully satisfied
with either, until for history, I discovered Anthropology and cultural
history with a focus on religious symbols – and for photography, I
discovered the digital camera and Photoshop.  I’m living proof for the
hidden artist in all of us; some of us are just waiting for our medium to
come along.  My medium came with the digital camera and Photoshop. I
stumbled across this idea over ten years ago but, it did not really take off
until 2004 when I leapt into the digital realm with the purchase of my
first digital camera, the Minolta Dimage S414.

Since I've embarked on my mandala journey I've really develped not only
my photography skills, but also my own personal drawing skills. The Digital
Mandalas available on the
Available Art page in this website are
completely digital. Meaning they originated from a digital photograph and
are everyday, recognizable images transformed into something very
different while maintaining the essence of the original image.

In 2009 I went on a meditation retreat to get in touch with attempting
to draw my own mandala images. The result from attending this
workshop over the last year includes facilitating my own workshops to
help others connect with their own personal mandalas while at the same
time improving my own basic drawing skills.  You can see some of what
I've drawn on the
Home Page of this website. Please enjoy.

There is such a rich history within the world of Mandalas and creating
mandalas and the symbolism that they represent can be very powerful on
an individual level, spiritual level, and societal level. Mandalas can be
used as a tool for healing just about whatever ails you on a daily
business, from seemingly innocuous ailments to serious diseases such as
cancer, HIV, and depression.

For more information about how mandalas might be able to help you,
please feel free to contact at your convenience. I look forward to hearing
from, and helping you.

In Peace
