About The Artwork
A panoramic photo taken near Ranger Lakes campgrounds near Walden, Colorado. I took this photo minutes before the storm rolled over the mountains. The torrential rain moved down the mountain side like a wave. I hiked as fast as I could through the woods back to my truck. Unfortunately, I could not outrun the storm. Heavy rains, strong winds, slippery clay trails and hail, made the hike painful and slow. I didn't realize until I was back at my truck, that hail had ripped a whole in the protective cover over my camera bag. Everything was drenched. The drive home, which normally took 2 hours, was slowed down from the storm. Flash floods, fallen trees, strong winds and more hail, made the journey take close to 4 hours. The entire time, all I could think of was if any of my photos or equipment was damaged. The memory card was undamaged, and an amazing collection of photos came from it. I did need to rebuild and clean both my lens and camera body. Did you know that the Canon L EF35-350mm lens has several hundred ball bearings in it? Found that out the hard way. It was all worth it though. Saatchi doesnt offer prints that fit this photo. I offer them through my website.

Thank you for looking at my photographs. Art has always been a part of me, for as long as I can remember. As a child, I would learn and practice any style of art I could. Dreamed of going to art school, living my life just creating. I spent my time building a portfolio, thinking of what an artist's life would be like. But that never happened. As I grew older, I still dreamed of being a full-time artist, but was too scared. Art had become such a huge part of my identity, that the thought of being rejected from art school became a rejection of myself, a rejection of identity. So, I "sold out" became the computer guy. I still created art but for the most part kept it too myself. Life felt safer, but computers have never been satisfying. Then one day, I had kids. They changed everything. I had to take a deep look at myself as figure out what kind of parent I wanted and needed to be. What I wanted my kids to learn. What kind of man I need to be as an example. I want them to learn not to be scared to try, to put themselves out there. My job as a father, is to help my kids become better than myself, so I just can't tell them, I need to show them. So here we are, me showing them. Check out my website http://houseofcompton.com/ My kids also said I need social media so follow me on Twitter @houseofcompton or Instagram @House_of_Compton
