“Being constantly attached to our cell phones is taking a toll, not just on our relationships but on our mental and emotional well-being, affecting our overall health. Phubbing (phone and snubbing blended together) is now a term in the dictionary and is a growing problem.”

ARTIST BIO: Introduced to photography at a very early age, Patrick Affourtit’s initial attraction to visual imagery grew into a life long passion. Through the years from film to digital, he constantly strives to improve his craft, whether it being through a photographic approach, creative composition and light, or with post processing techniques. Being a devoted traveler and passionate landscape designer provide him the opportunity to view the world from different angles through his photography. Capturing a moment that will never happen again can be both a fascinating and a very fulfilling experience.
