As a landscape photographer living in greater Phoenix it would be difficult for me to ignore the beautiful Sonoran desert that surrounds us. Year after year I scour the desert with my cameras and it has never failed to yield wild, beautiful images to me.

The countdown to Best of Phoenix continues! Last year, we profiled 100 Creatives who made a mark on the local arts scene. This year, we’ll have 100 creative representations of Phoenix.  No scope or requirement on medium or size — we’ll include photography, painting, sculpture, video, installation, literary, and more. What do you see when you Imagine PHX?

Imagine PHX, so far: 100: Steven Revering’s Westward Ho
