acorn woodpecker
As a very young girl my fondest memory was sitting on my grandmother’s porch while she showed me tintypes of my great grandmother and other loved ones.
As a very young girl my fondest memory was sitting on my grandmother’s porch while she showed me tintypes of my great grandmother and other loved ones.
Holding these tintypes in my hand and gazing into the eyes of my ancestors while hearing stories of my grandmother’s childhood was an experience I hold dear to my heart.
Those tintypes were my first exposure to the art of photography.
My series Antique Aviary is a melding of my lifelong passion for birds, my wildlife photography and my deep appreciation of the tintype image.
