Photographing Children in Kurcistan Refugee Camp

Besides drawing, I also love to express my creativity through photography.  I have been fortunate to travel to all but one of the fifty states and to 27 countries.  Being able to capture the uniqueness of each place I've visited has expanded my view and appreciation of the world. 

 

In 2013 and 2014 I traveled to Iraq's Northern Region of Kurdistan.  While there I visited six different refugee camps.  I could have stayed there forever capturing the images of people who made this crisis real. On several of the trips I brought art supplies and spent time with the children creating.  It will always be one of my life experiences I cherish.
