My series titled "Shelter Dogs" was on display at Jomar Visions this passed Friday and Saturday during the FotoFest 2014 Biennial. It was an awesome two days meeting new people and catching up with friends. My series statement and the photos I included in the "Shelter Dog" series are below.
SHELTER DOGS - Series Statement
"The photos in this series were taken during my days volunteering for the League City Animal Shelter.
Put quite simply, I have a love for animals. When I started volunteering at the animal shelter, I had no idea just how much the dogs and cats would affect me. You start learning their names and talking to them as you walk through the kennels. It can be quite emotional when you see one adopted that has been in a kennel for months and months. I am happy they are going to a home, but sad I won't see them anymore.
The photos in this series are of dogs that I played with, cleaned up after and loved during my volunteer shifts. Most have gone to loving homes, but some are still with us at the shelter.
My hope is that others will look into the eyes of these beautiful dogs and see the love that I see each and every time I visit the shelter."
