I always find myself in a state of wonderment. And, as some people may attest that this is not a productive state, I beg to differ. When the intense peachy tones of a petal, or the sparkels on the water during the golden hour take ahold of my full attention, a creative energy is evoked in me that cannot be turned off or brought on by any other force. This energy is what I will bring into my work no matter the project or task at hand – and is an energy I hope my work will evoke in others.
