" The divine mystery that you seek is the very source of your own life -
find it within! "

When we find the path that most deeply affects our consciousness - it's not a matter of chosing - you have been chosen and you've got to follow it no matter how difficult the road. I am committed to the pursuit of compelling images that sustain a sense of mystery - while simultaneously revealing the ineffible.
