Graduated Buffalo State College, 1989 What does peace look like to you? Peace looks like everyone having food, shelter and clothing to sustain their body; education and art to sustain their spirit; and love and dignity to sustain their soul. A world that works for everyone where children grow up free, and strong. What inspires you? People inspire me. That's why so many of my pictures are photos of people from around the world. I feel that a place is just a place, no matter how beautiful, without the people who live there. What is your medium of choice? Why? Photography, I love capturing a moment in time and freezing it for all time. Who are your favorite artists? Who influences you? My husband is my favorite artist. Honestly, I would never have discovered my photograpic talent without him. I really started taking photos specifically as reference for Jeff to paint from. Once I started looking at the world through his eyes suddenly my photos became more than snapshots. Suddenly they were art. How long have you been creating and what or who inspired you to start? I've been creating photos for the past two and a half years. See above for who inspires me. What outcome do you see possible for yourself out of participating in this show? I can't wait to share my photos with family and friends! The other outcome I anticipate is the inspiration to complete my application for the Master's in Documentary Filmmaking I'm applying for at the New School in New York City. donna
