About / life in motion

The rest of me
lives off-screen.

Dogs, a cat, plants, paint, difficult weather, long roads, and a camera that usually comes along.

20 moments / Minnesota + China

Home team

The quiet life is mostly fictional.

Sky, Clifford, and Mido keep the house honest, loud, and much better than planned.

Made + tended

A few things I kept alive.

Gardening slows the day down. Painting taught me to look twice before deciding what I saw.

Road notes

The camera goes too.

Long roads, difficult weather, and western Sichuan gave me plenty of reasons to stop and frame the view.

Small detours

I usually take the interesting route.

A family frame, a difficult path, one reindeer negotiation, and very serious strawberry fieldwork.
