Photographic Art

I have been reawakened to the art of photography since meeting my boyfriend John Adkins [The World Thru My Lens, Fotographic, foto71] whom I consider a very talented photographer. Seeing the world through his eyes has been second only to seeing the eyes through the eyes of my children.
My children give me such an appreciation that age some times can diminish due to life's adult distractions, such as job, being a single parent, bills etc.
Being an artist, I've always thought I had an eye for beautiful or interesting things in life, but until recently, these things always quickly became forgotten clutter in my brain.
Finding the instant gratification found in photography as an art through John, has enabled me to capture these precious moments instantly as well as preserve them in a way I can recall them quickly...(my brain doesn't refresh as fast as it used to) he-he!
I will be forever thankful to him for helping me find such a pleasurable means to channel my creative energies. You can see my photos on my flickr page, as well as see my art on my main website, though that page is currently under construction.
