Come Wander Along with Me...

I wander...it is simply what I do.  Since I was a young girl, my parent's tried everything to keep me close to home, going to such  measures as to buy me goats.  Though I loved my goats, my heart still  wandered.  

Growing up in rural New Jersey, I was surrounded by dense woods and long stretches of farm land to fuel my imagination.   I felt at home in the arms of the forest and spent many days laying upon the fragrant mossy soil staring up through the filter of leaves... watching the light dance.  It is these experiences that I work to remember.

In adulthood, I discovered the joy of capturing those precious moments, through my camera's lens.  Though the many years in between my youth and the present, I have enjoyed many wonderful adventures and am currently wandering in another people's land.  For the past 10 years I have had the pleasure of living in Europe and learning to look at life in a very different way.   

Through my images and my wanderings, I hope you will enjoy seeing the world around you... in a new way.

So...I invite you to "Come Wander Along with Me..."

Last year at this time I was wandering the amazing blooming flower fields of Holland.  This year, unable to attend the fan fare that hails the arrival of these blooming “onions” I am forced to pretend in my local U-pick tulip patch. OK so it may only be three small rows but they certainly are...

Vineyard… “Lost and Found”

Thursday, April 22, 2010 at 8:15am Posted in Around my Village, Germany, Living in Europe, Local Color, Observations

I spend a lot of time wandering the vineyards of Germany with my dog, documenting the subtle changes to the landscape.  On this particular walk, I found a change that was particularly out of the ordinary. It is a German thing I have discovered that if something is lost, the finder will take the time...

Fellow Itinerant Artists…the Wandergesellen

Friday, April 16, 2010 at 6:23am Posted in Around my Village, Germany, Living in Europe, Local Color, Observations, Travel

For many years, due to my nomadic lifestyle courtesy of the U.S. Military, my business was aptly named, The Itinerant Artist.  Since moving here to Germany I have been fascinated by a group of fellow itinerant artist, the wandergesellen. As if from another time, like many things here in Germany, their traditions run deep.  I...
