Photo-Artist & Printmaker - Associate of The Royal Photographic Society
Photography and art has defined who I am from film to the present digital age, I eventually became an Associate of The Royal Photographic Society in 2011.
My journey as a specialised printmaker followed on from the photographic digital age; becoming tired of the growth of throwaway images I needed to return to a more of a time honoured way of presenting my imagery which I now do through alternative photography and other printmaking mixed media processes.
Living in West Cornwall much of my inspiration is taken from the wild Celtic landscape that I have loved and lived in for most of my life. The coast, the sea and the moors, isolated places attract me where look to shape, form and design within the Cornish landscape.
I create etchings, photogravures, cyanotypes, and collagraphs, all original prints. I love to engrave, etch, use watercolour, inks and any other form of mark-making that captures the beauty of the Cornish coast and the countryside inhabitants in essence. l am a multi-disciplinary artist but foremost, my passion for photography informs all my work from this incredible peninsular, which is my passion.
I have exhibited at photographic salons throughout UK, in London (Royal Albert Hall), Vienna, New Mexico, Bonn & Cologne, Germany and Nagoya Japan. I am also represented by the photographic agencies ARCANGEL & ALAMY.
