Do you capture Impressions or do you Freeze Time?
Moods and Memories or Warts and All?
Or do you do both?

I said I make art.......but truth is I capture emotions in time that many people miss. This allows me or my customers the ability to remember those moments, emotions, feelings of a certain time and appreciate them even more so.
