"Human beauty and the beauty of nature have a distinct line drawn between them; with my photographs I explore that line and attempt to integrate the two together. Through in camera double and triple exposures, I layer photographs of people with natural surroundings such as spider webs, lakes, trees, and the sky as you will see in a few of the photographs displayed today. Growing up in an area surrounded by rolling hills and forested areas, I have always had an affinity for nature and the mysterious beauty it beholds. With my photographs I attempt to convey the way in which I see nature, and the way I define myself through said subjects." Melody R Webster 2013
