All are welcome to
join us on Wednesday, September 12th from 5 to 7 for a
reception for the artist
“Most people
photograph flowers when they are in full bloom. I discovered that flowers past
their prime had a unique beauty to them.
As the flower dries/dies it goes through altered positions before the
ultimate loss of petals. Petals twist and curl or some even look windblown,
stems bend and curve over. It¹s these states that I find intriguing; the
flowers are frozen in a graceful gesture or dance; there¹s a brush stroke
quality to them. I photographed them individually and against a neutral
background in order to accent their simplicity and gracefulness.”
