Resurrection

I want to start by thanking everyone who has been patient in following my work through it’s spurts and lags. Some people were asking were I’ve been, and I get the sense that people are sort of confused about why I’m so touch and go about my photography. Although I feel the community on flickr gives me a wonderful drive to continuously create, I must admit have somewhat intentionally been avoiding it lately because I felt it was getting in the way of my creative growth. I am passionate about photography, but I have always done many creative things and I need to continue evolving into other realms. I see film as having the power to sync all my artistic passions into one medium and I’ve been powering ahead with it full force. I’m starting small- taking short videos to learn with as I have never been to film school and don’t intend on going. I’ll continue to upload them here as well as my photography which I plan on keeping up as I continue. But perhaps with a little less, how shall we say, flickrian-paced fervor as I once did. Photos are such quick and satisfying projects. They allow me to express myself in powerful yet simplistic ways. And they are actually experienced by others, often en masse, which is more than one can say about poetry, plays, and most other art forms that come to mind. I love the medium, but I also want more. So believe me when I say I am not stopping, I just am regaining my sense of balance a little bit 🙂

On that note, please excuse me while I go crash after this 18 hour editing bender…
