Another photograph taken by James during that fly fishing trip with Mike. The water rushing down the small valley has so many underlying rocks and twists and I tried to capture it's fury and depth bringing you closer in. Painted Summer 2008

"Big Creek"
James took several photographs during his fishing trip with Mike during this past summer in Haywood County, North Carolina. The water was cold, the fish uncooperative but the creek was lush, fast flowing and splendid. I need a better camera to capture the detail. Painted Fall 2007

Spanish Steps
My latest work is of a small picture perfect white washed town in southern Spain called Frigiliana, located just above Neja. Painted Fall 2007
Cinque Terra
A friend sent me this photo from the Italian coast line, Cinque Terra and the town of Manarola. I went on the internet to discover more of the surroundings and also found out there are 5 towns with terraces - this one has a naval armoury at its base - I loved the angles and colors. Painted summer 2007

In the plane from Zurich to Berlin we flew over the Swiss Alps. This view seemed to go on for miles and miles it was breath taking, with the low hanging clouds shrouding the river. Painted spring 2007

I copied this photograph out of the newspaper - I loved the action, passion and color, the scrappy newspaper picture can be seen in my portfolio - it's too mangled to scan and due justice to the photographer. Painted summer 2007
