Posted by | Mar 1, 2017 | , |

Photo courtesy of shotsbybauer.com. Meet Arrow and Elodie, my Godchildren and rulers of this dimension. Don’t let them fool you, within seconds your mind will be melted and you will forever be under their spell. Once upon a time in a land far far away there lived an unlikely pair, named Arrow and Elodie. The two were inseparable and relied on one another for most things. You see, the even farther off place they hail from, can no longer be entered and the two are the last of their kind. In this magical homeland, where the skies are purple and the oceans are abundant with life, one can only live for 9 full moons before they are exiled to an unknown land, where the people of the new world speak with boos and bahs. Understanding only each other, Arrow and Elodie chose they would rule this new world, for they were often misunderstood and underestimated.Arrow found he could control those around him by simply smiling for moments to lure in the unsuspecting natives, then opening his mouth and letting out a fierce war cry just as they thought he was tamed. He discovered the one who carries the gateway to his home world, could magically tap into a source from their far-off land and provide nourishment at a moment’s notice if the right squeal was made. While Arrow conquers...

In a little-known town, located in a not much talked about part of the world, lives a humble peasant girl named Christina. One day while walking through the forest of Upland near the unicorn trail, Christina stumbled and fell. With determination and conviction Christina stood back up and searched for the malevolent object that caused her injury. But what she found was no item of malicious intent, in fact it was no ordinary item at all. What Christina found would forever change her humble life. It was an object that when aimed at the extravagant beauty of nature or the adventure of those Christina admired, would capture the moment and allow Christina to relive the journey of the day whenever she desired. As she searched for a name for this amazing item, she pondered calling it a Farrell, an Oz, or possibly a Hetfield. After days of uncertainty only one name would fit, only one name could capture something of this epic proportion, MAGIC…   With my photography, I hope to capture the magic moments and the unique inspirational journey that happens in every day life. At times, people give me the honor of hiring me to be a part and share their unique journey. I hope today you enjoy my work and maybe I will get to come along on your next adventure. Thank you for...

Scheumack Wine Label

Posted by | Dec 18, 2016 | , , |

In a small village, just past reality and slightly beyond fantasy, there exists the humble but amazing clan of Scheumacks. Every generation of Scheumack, from grand pappy and memaw, to mother and father, down to sons and daughters have been raised passing down the stories and legends of the great and powerful vine. As legend tells, the vine grew out of the love of a unicorn and dragon. One day a fierce battle erupted in the land between the unicorns and dragons. This battle was unlike any battle ever known, for this battle was a battle for love. Hour after hour, day after day as the battle ensued, dragons and unicorns fell as the life blood left their bodies. It is said that when the blood of the two foes touched, something magical happened. Life began to grow and…Totally kidding, we make this stuff at our house in Rancho Cucamonga. But seriously, it’s so amazing that you will believe it was made from the magical love of dragons and...

Blank Pages

Posted by | Mar 3, 2008 | |

Today as I sit I write on blank pages giving them purpose…or for this moment they may be helping me find mine.   With each stroke of the pen, something can be created…something will be created. Something great, Something filled with passion. Something to create feeling. Something to create emotion.   Emotion… Can emotion be created with a stroke of a pen on blank pages? Or…will it just be persuaded to move. Is emotion just waiting for the right moment and when that moment is right, emotion finds its purpose?   When emotion finds its purpose… Passion takes a breath. Passion starts to breath life.   From a stoke of a pen on blank pages we can move emotion and give life to passion. When passion finds life she must have time, time to grow. Time to live. Time to create.   Create… What must passion create? Passion must give birth to love. Without love, passion can’t live. And if passion can’t live, Love can’t be born. Emotion will cease to move, and the blank pages will no longer have purpose.   -Michael...
