Climbing to the top of old cathedrals and churches, to me, is just a must do if its allowed. The views not only of the cityscape below but of the architecture is just wonderful.

I'm still amazed by the level of detail in the upper reaches of places like St Peter's Basilica. Consider for a moment that it was never intended to be viewed up close. Most people were meant to see these upper stories from the ground! But these places were so important they didn't skimp and the architecture shows it!

The climb to the top of Saint Peter's was a highlight of my time in Rome. It was a crowded and at times claustrophobic climb through the inside of the dome, but the views were so worth it.

This was one of my parting shots on the way back down, a souvenir of a memorable afternoon in Rome!

Life is full of happy surprises. After just over a decade working in the 9 to 5 cube world, I threw caution to the wind to follow my dreams of being a full time visual artist. That was five years ago! Is it easy? No, but something truly worthwhile is rarely simple. My body of work is wide ranging from photographic scenes of far away places, more near and dear locations, and more fanciful artwork. It's all crafted with a heartfelt love for finding the beauty in little captured moments. My artwork also hangs on walls near and far from private homes to businesses who have chosen to decorate with my art. Whether you've purchased one piece or a house full or you simply admire and share with your friends, your patronage of my art is...
