Description

Thomas Jefferson Memorial

This bronze statue, designed by Rudulph Evans, was not installed until 1947 due to shortages from the War. The plaster statue that preceded it, painted to look, like bronze, was dedicated in 1943, Jefferson, the main drafter and writer of the Declaration of Indepnedence, was president between 1801 and 1809.

The neoclassical Thomas Jefferson Memorial sits on the Tidal Basin off the Washington Channel of the Potomac River in Washington, D.C.

Nature, animals, beauty have been a source of nourishment throughout my life. Photography allows me to capture, interpret, and share that world of wonder I see about me, and sometimes use what I capture as an inspiration to create something new, by incorporating other exposures, textures or brushwork.

I currently reside in Oregon, an environment rich in nature's graces. I have lived in California and New York, too, and everywhere there is a world of beauty around us, if we care to take the time and look for it.
