As a frequent visitor to Astoria, I always find exciting subjects to photograph. A few years ago, on my way to photograph my favorite rusty railcar, I became fascinated with taking close-up photographs of massive piles of colorful trawler nets at the Port of Astoria Boatyard. One day, I noticed a boat in for repairs named Iona, my granddaughter’s name. As I moved closer, I was completely captivated by the swirling patterns of paint, corrosion, and primer on the hull. This initial fascination grew into an obsession, and I have spent hours wandering through this forest of colors and textures, mesmerized by the incredible combinations of layered paint and rust! In my pursuit of abstract images, I go beyond traditional visual representation and invite viewers on a journey of personal interpretation and reflection.
