About Me
The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science. ... Albert Einstein
I'm a creative. I don't know how to be anything else. Everything I see, hear, smell is fuel for my muse. I've had several careers, but was never content until I found my niche.
Now, I run a home-based studio, FyreWork Designs where I freelance as a photographer, writer and designer. I wear many hats, but love what I do. I enjoy working in variety of artistic venues: digital alchemy, multi-media as well as mixed media. I often use my photography as a springboard to create fanciful images.
You'll find variety here, complete with comments as the muse sees fit. You've been warned ;-)
Oh, and in case you didn't know ... I'm a cancer survivor. Every day I wake up, I've survived!

The Simple Pear
According to the ancient Chinese, the pear was a symbol of immortality, as pear trees live for a long time. In other mythologies, the pear was seen as a symbol of harvest.
In this picture, I've immortalized the pear and put it on display.
