About

When I see something that grabs me, I want to grab it back.

I have carried a camera and sketchbook with me at all times since my adolescence, just in case. These are some photographs I have taken along the way.

My paintings can be viewed at www.denaschutzer.com and through the Bowery Gallery in NYC.
