My abstract landscape photography at Clackamas Women's Services, OR

I am delighted and honored that Clackamas Women's Services in Oregon City, OR chose my abstract landscape photography to fill their new Safe Place Family Justice Center.  Clackamas Women's Services (CWS) based in Oregon City, OR  "...offers free services to survivors of  domestic and sexual violence providing support to individuals and families as they work towards a self-sufficient, violent-free life". 

A Safe Place Family Justice Center, completed at the end of 2013, is where victims of abuse can run to in a time of crisis and deal with their next steps all under one roof:-

 "from spiritual support, housing services, legal counseling, financial support services.” Also, "survivors of domestic violence will be able to talk with a counselor, file a police report, find a battered-women’s shelter, join a support group and get a restraining order from a judge — all in one building called A Safe Place" . 

 A lot of survivors and their families did not know where to run to as there are so many steps to deal with in order to get out of the unsafe situation so they often go back to the abuser as it seems the easiest option.  Now, the new Safe Place is a safe environment for victims to run to and where everything can be dealt with together:  a “one-stop shopping so we can provide wraparound services to victims, so families don’t have to go place-to-place,”

I am thrilled that CWS selected 22 images from my portfolio to fill their new Safe House and I hope individuals will find solace looking at my images during their time there.

Affordable abstract landscape photography for your home or office.

i have been selling my photography for offices and homes all around the world for the past 4 years.  I create contemporary abstract landscape photographs of all moods and colors and adore creating new pieces.  So my work is affordable I have an inventory of about 1000 photographs.  My subject matter was something I started developing about 12 years ago when photographing in nature.  If you love calming, zen-like imagery that is abstract and painterly in nature but with a distinct reference to seascape and distant landscapes then you are sure to love my work.  I have sold to all different clients in the US, Canada, Europe and Asia as well as Australia and also to all types of entities:  interior designers, PR, healthcare, luxury yachts, hotels, law firms, musicians, publishing companies, casinos and non-profit.  i am an award-winning photographer with photographic competitions such as the International Photography Awards (IPA) and Worldwide Photographic Gala Awards (WPGA) and I have exhibited my work in Boston, MA; Santa Fe, NM and Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Frances Seward's abstract landscape photography for healing.



I am going to be taking a trip to the UK next week to see my father.  He is 88 years old and ailing faster than we thought!  I have lived in the States 12 years and it is now that I feel I need to be there during his last months.  I cannot go for long since I have a 6 year old and another on the way.  It is a hard time for me and something I have been anticipating for a while.  I must remember to think of my imagery especially those that are particularly peaceful since some have more energy than others.  These are the pieces I think about:
