I use my scanner as a camera to produce magnified, high resolution images, This gives me a closer more intimate look at the intricacies of nature. Not only does the scanner provide for a realistic bigger than life look, it also can create a translucent painterly effect. For many years the Marin Farmers Market in San Rafael California has fed me both body and soul. The fruits, vegetables and flowers that I purchase often find their way onto my scanner, becoming the medium for my art.
A few years ago I started collecting and pressing flowers to create an herbarium. I used my scanner to further preserve and enlarge the pressings. I collaborated with Cindy LaMar to create A Gardeners Herbarium, a collection of high resolution prints of our pressed botanicals which we exhibited jointly.
I have contributed numerous images to UC Marin Master Gardeners website and publications, the Golden Gate National Recreation Area, and local garden organizations highlighting garden design and illustrating best gardening practices.
