Amazing Grace
This photo, taken before the pandemic in the artist district of downtown Santa Ana, is special to me. It’s near my studio, where I began learning photography at the California Center for the Digital Arts with my friend David LeNeve. This piece, once puzzling, now symbolizes my journey from blindness to clarity, just like “Amazing Grace.”
