Photography, oddly enough is not the reason I am a photographer. I did not start taking pictures as a child, nor hold my first camera when I was 3. I am however, an artist, and as an artist I have chosen to use my camera to satisfy my curiosity for the world and all that I love about it.

The Compass School: An Opportunity to become Lifelong Learners
When Lynne Bryan Phipps sees a problem, she creates her own solution. And when it came to her children’s education, she had THE solution. “I saw a huge need, not only for additional schools, but for a different kind of education to be available. And that education included a core, values based education.” She took her kids out of a great school, moved to Kingston, Rhode Island, and founded the Compass School, a K-8 school dedicated to graduating problem solvers, critical thinkers and lifelong learners.

“I hope that when I make furniture I’m creating more than a chair, table or bed: I hope that I’m making a piece whose existence will humbly make the world a better and more wondrous place to live. A chair, for instance, allows us to sit and rest, which in turn allows us to run, dance and laugh. It is a small gesture celebrating everything beyond itself.”
