Martha Vaughn American, born July 29 1935


artist statement
I photograph the ordinary everyday world we live in, whether it is still life or an abstraction. Photogrphy has taught me to see in new ways a,d find pleasure in simple objects or scenes — fruit or flowers arranged against various backgrounds, a simple wall of peeling paint, teh bottoms of overturned boats.
