My Photographic Pandemic Project began in March 2020, when Covid-19 forced us to shelter at home. I created my abstract photography by experimenting with the refraction of natural light through prisms. Looking through the lens of the camera inspired me to escape the painful reality and isolation of the pandemic. I continue to be fascinated by capturing the evanescence of the prismatic colors to create my compositions.

Now that I am back to painting in my studio after this intense technical experience, I see a change in my point of view. Color and light remain my source of inspiration, but I have a new awareness about how to communicate personal feelings and reactions to world events with the colors, lines, and shapes in my work.
