About Me

I'm trying to keep my head above water and find the time to flex my art degree.

If there's no I in team, why is there meat?

Interests

• I make my living doing PR for Music Technology but my heart is still with photography and film and painting. I have always been fascinated with abstract imagery. When I was a little girl in elementary school I was obsessed with modern art and architecture. I spent hours designing plans for modern houses and signed my plans with my Architect moniker Marsha Mod. I got my first camera at age 9 and began doing serious photography at 13. My photography is about my lifelong obsession with abstract painting. It is about line
• color
• texture
• form and composition. I began to paint my own paintings in order to photograph them and the paintings sometimes end up having a life of their own. There is so much available material in my immediate life. Texture has been a huge interest for me as graphical elements – where lines intersect – and color of course becomes a major player. I have resisted extensive photoshop manipulation and what you see is what I see in the viewfinder.
