“As a fine artist I endeavor to create visual images that accurately portray the beauty of the world that is around us.  I am the filter with my own particular view.  No camera can portray what I would have you see, and while I choose to be faithful to what I see, I embrace the opportunity to portray form with a loose expressionistic approach.” …Krystal W.
