So I watched this documentary last night and I HAVE TO SHOOT DETROIT!!! anyone wanna sponsor an artist?!?!? The decay of this once vibrant city is exactly what I foresee happening all over America in the next few decades. Anyway please watch this.
what do you think?
I know this has nothing to do with photography in itself, but it has everything to do with my artistic flow. I feed on documentaries, books, and pretty much all information to get my visions.

Inspiration
I have been asked a lot lately what inspires me. In conversation I tend to get tongue tied because there are too many things to name. I figured that I would start to share some of my biggest influences here. My inspiration comes to me from everything, I am inspired by books, documentaries, movies, events, colors, light, mood, etc etc.. So as I am consciously inspired by things I will add them to this blog.
Perhaps more than anything else the environment really ignites something within me. I was a part of a group called Earth Force as a child and we flew to Washington D.C. to meet Al Gore before he was V.P. I was also a Girl Scout and so a love of the outdoors was cultivated in me early. I also grew up loving science and actually started college as a biology major, with the intent of becoming an obstetrician, however at 17, the age I started college, I was not interested in devoting the necessary time to chemistry that it would have taken for me to pursue that path. I digress, this documentary on the environment entitled HOME is one of my favorite documentaries for many reasons, the narrative is brilliant and the cinematography is visually delicious. If you find yourself wanting to watch a movie please watch this. It is amazing.
If you do watch it, please let me know what you think. This movie is a heavy influence in my thesis work.
