I was born in England and migrated to Australia 1980. I have had a long interest in art and photography, having worked as an artist in the mid eighties. In2003 I completed a diploma in professional photography with the New York Institute of Photography. I particularly like taking ‘street photos’ and have great admiration for some past and present greats in that area, ie Robert Doisneau whose quote “There are days when the technique of an aimless stroll – without timetable or destination works like a dream – flushing out pictures from the non-stop urban spectacle” ….. Recently I have begun to explore how photos can bring out a certain emotion or memory and I particularly like the play of light and shadows on objects and the natural phenomenon of clouds, reflections, etc. I love producing a photo that people can enjoy or associate a fleeting memory with and to that part more and more of my work is creating collages that can tell a story without words….
