C.A.Halpin takes us on a journey that celebrates the overlooked, the left behind, lost & lonely, articles dropped or abandoned.  Using a camera as a sketchbook she notes her surroundings, events and objects, made memorable by being photographed.  She does not describe herself as a photographer, rather, an artist using the camera as she would a pencil or brush.  These photographs rely on a sense of drawing, with the wry wit of the spur of the moment captured in these images.
