WELCOME to my collection of art including photographic greeting cards, matching enlargements, and other work from my exhibits.

Each art piece holds stories, gathered from my explorations, treks, travels, and spontaneous adventures with my camera. I’m always chasing what’s compelling: things like color, form, energy, mystery, vibe, the moment that makes you stop and feel something.

My photographs are more than collections, they’re meant to create an experience: a mood, a memory, a spark. No two shoots are ever alike — and someday, I just might write that book.

I have a special passion for the handwritten greeting card. Think back to the last time someone sent you a colorful 'hard copy' card with a warm message inside. That feeling matters and it’s worth sharing through these note cards.

My cards travel the world, and some customers admit they don’t even send them, they keep them as treasured mini art pieces — and even frame them.

So, whether you’re here to give a card, collect art, or simply enjoy beauty and inspiration, enjoy the ride.

Thank you for visiting,
Pat
