When is a tree not a tree, a window not a window? Every day we see things that are not there, we see things in reflection and experience then in new dimensions. “Sidewalk Tree” reflects that moment.

Walking down a wet Portland street in December, hunched over to protect yourself from the rain, eager to get home and shed your coat. Suddenly the sidewalk opens and a glass window surrounded in condensation shows you the skeletal majesty of a tree outside braving the elements and thriving in the winter weather. But you are looking down, not out a window, into the cement where time has created shallows and rain has collected and the tree that shaded you last July is dancing in its own mirror and reminding you that there’s more out there if you just straighten up a bit. You stop to look down and out that window a little longer. Those extra drops won’t hurt you – they may even make you smile as they trickle down the back of your neck.

I try in my art to capture those moments that remind us to breath. Even in the most difficult times, we can make the effort to notice where and what we are and to know we are alive. Everything changes, so relish what is captured in each photograph and know it is unique – it was never so before and it will never be the same again.
