"As the pandemic continues, I’m not feeling much unity in the United States. I have hope, yet the uncertainty of the future gives me anxiety."

"This is a conceptual work that explores the ephemeral nature of life and manipulates notions of mortality. I work to instill compassion and beauty in my images; taking something that has been cast off and forgotten and re-imagining it in a way that pays tribute to the exquisite quality in nature that transcends death. The subject in this work was ethically sourced."

"Regardless of where we are quarantined, the sky is always available by just stepping outside and looking up. This is early morning from the top of the Rims with the crescent moon and Jupiter above the eastern horizon."

"One's birthday is a time of celebration—cake, presents, family and friends singing "Happy Birthday to You" as you blow out the candles. Now, to protect the health of ourselves and others, we are told to wash our hands well and often and for as long as it takes to sing that song."

"This work was conceptualized as a study in the contrast of form and color between flesh and bone with themes of predation and existence. The use of color and composition was selected to be reminiscent of traditional still life memento mori paintings. All subjects in this work were ethically sourced."

"Unable to get out and photograph my typical subjects, I decided to use a skull that my son and I had collected on a hike while social distancing ourselves from the rest of the world. Still too cold for flowers to bloom in Montana I pulled some artificial roses, and created this small series. Its important for me to continue to create despite the current limitations on our daily lives."

"Reading books in the sunniest corner of my home, an orange tabby resting in the sill. The sidewalks are empty. An uncertainty haunts us for a while."

"This is the second in an ongoing series of still life photographs. This work takes a minimalist approach to still life photography by emphasizing shape, light, shadow, and negative space in composition. Elements of nature are arranged in delicate balance to explore concepts of the fragility and transitory quality of nature and of life."

"I began writing this song during our last large family gathering on March 14th. After beginning our sheltering at home, I spent a full day and parts of others putting the original ideas together. In order to share the song on a friend's Facebook Page entitled "Quarantine Corner - A Little Ray of Sunshine," I had to change the format and decided to add original Montana photography. I have received amazing feedback that the video and music are calming, and I couldn't be happier that it has helped some manage the stress of these historic and challenging times!"
