LIGHT ON SHADOW

Art is my passion and conservation my purpose, and for me the two are inseparable. Art is the primary instrument I use to help inspire the conservation of our oceans most vulnerable species and habitats. My works come from almost two decades of my journey on the front lines of conservation, capturing some of the most beautiful and profound moments in nature, but also some of the greatest heart-breaks. In these works, I lay bare my soul in the hopes that others will feel both my joy and pain, and become inspired to join us in helping to conserve our oceans.
