"L.A. Meditations," published in 2008, is my first survey of the Los Angeles area from a contemplative point of view. The color palette of the city and the unique quality of L.A.'s sunlight shown in these images combine with patterns, shapes and spaces to create a solemn, yet playful ode to the City of Angels. Produced only 6 years after moving to L.A. from the midwest, this book is my first artistic statement of affection for L.A.
