Paul Valery said that "to see is to forget the names of what one sees."

I have tried in this series to transcend the usual, the expected, the understood. Instead I have looked closely at my subject matter and tried to expand my vision and my ideas about the reality of our world.

This series has helped me move to close observation of the physical world and to try to see it in a way that is not preconceived.
