I have been relying on painting to make real my belief in my experiences of water.  I want to explore the role photography plays in this process and to try video as well as other mixed media. To see if there are ways that the process might shift so that the end result is not always a painting. Additionally, to explore if digital media might enable a shared experience of belief.  Making the work more accessible. To see if a memory once shared is altered.  And does this alter the experience of belief?  Can digital media be as real as painting, for me?
