Cheyenne Artists Guild Newsletter Chair



"One never saw my Dad without at least one camera around his neck.  It didn’t matter where he was; it was captured in one of his numerous pictures.  He loved flowers, sunsets, my baby daughter’s “Cabbage Patch” toes; family…he loved to fish.  I lost my Dad a few years ago.  That is when I picked up a camera.  I would go for walks and take pictures of things that I thought others might miss…a praying mantis on a branch, a spider web, that one drop of water on a flower petal.  I love this world that God has created.  I love that I am able to take photos of His creations and I especially love the flowers.  As Dodinsky wrote...“To the flowers I whisper the secrets I keep and the hopes I breathe.  I know they are there to eavesdrop for the angels.”  And there I remember with love, my Dad.  I hope you enjoy the photos I have captured.  I take them with the hope that they might inspire someone along the way and maybe take their hopes and dreams up to the angels."
