This project began because of my love of farm animals and the knowledge that they are the most abused, overlooked animals on the planet. While visiting the sanctuaries, I confirmed what I knew in my heart to be true. These animals are unique; some quirky or funny, others sensitive,shy, playful, intelligent, mischievous, or inquisitive. All seemed to have complex emotional lives. I am making portraits of each animal to show their individual personality and to give them the respect they deserve. I invite you to view the photographs with compassionate eyes and hope that you begin to see farm animals in a new light.


"The animals of the world exist for
their own reasons.They were not made
for humans any more than black people
were made for whites or women for men." --Alice Walker
