Being absorbed by photography since an early age I have always sought out the unusual or overlooked subject matter which most people will ignore. My years of study of architectural form through my work has shaped my perception of this subject. Also. as an artist, I have been fortunate enough to have travelled extensively around the world since an early age. Consequently the many cultures and varieties of landscape have influenced my view of the world.

My work is particularily inspired by David Hockney, Andrew Wyeth, Callahan and very much admire the work of, in no particular order, Fred Hertzog and Joel Meyerowitz. In the first 20 years of my work all images were created with my 50 year old Rolleiflex using Kodak VPS or Portra color negative emulsion rated at 160ASA. No other technical information is offered, I am not a techno freak, for me the composition is what counts.

Over the last few years much of my work has been created using extremely light and colour sensitive cameras , both digtal and film cameras of medium and large format, adding to the accessability of the subject. The subjects are often abstractions and may have been worked on to fully explore their potential and depth as a statement of the perceived inner nature of the subject.

The images are printed with archival quality pigment based inks on cotton rag paper which give immense tonal depth and longevity.

I hope that the viewer will enjoy these images and share some of the unusual perceptions of objects and places that I have visualised.
