"For me, there are two levels of joy in my work. On the simple physical plane, I love to touch the clay, the feeling of earth and promise. The other is the feeling of gratification and gratefulness when a connection is made between a viewer and a particular piece. It is a special privilege to be able to make meaningful connections with other people through the sculptures I create."

#11: Larry Brenden

I have always been drawn to the beauty, mystery and ever evolving face of nature as a source of strength and renewal.  A walk in the woods or a canyon, whether with or without a camera, gives me a renewed source of purpose and peace. 

My experiences in nature have led me to explore multiple avenues to capture that magical moment in time where light and spirit combine to produce a memorable photographic image.
