Howdy friends, welcome. I started a blog.. what is it 2006?!
I suppose I should introduce myself in case any people besides my mother stumbles upon this page. I grew up in Phoenix but now live in Seattle. I’m a photographer and am in process of getting my second bachelors in environmental science. From there, more school… there is no end in sight on that front! More on that soon.
As I fumble through how an artist becomes a working scientist I want to share what I learn along the way by keeping an informal scientific photographic journal of sorts.
Gunnera manicata (also called giant rhubarb, or dinosaur food) covered for winter. It is sensitive to freezing temperatures so covering it in it’s own leaves keeps it insulated before spring. It looks fully gnarly and gorgeous.
My oldest sister Chere, who we all called Sissy, used to say ‘What’d you learrrrrn?’ and it always made me laugh. It was normally after someone did something stupid. I thought that was appropriate to use here as a sort of catch all.
Thanks for coming along for whatever this becomes. There is no real plan other than to get it down, so to speak. Cheers!
