Peter Sandilands
Profile
Born in 1929, I bought my first camera from Woolworth’s, at the age of eight, and went on to spend fifty years as a professional photographer. I served in the R.A.F. with 617 Squadron (The Dam-Busters), and later became Chief Photographer for I.C.I. Paints, the makers of Dulux paint. My ambition led me to open my own High Street Studio, where for twenty years, I carried out P.R.Photography for most of the U.K.’s top Blue Chip Companies. Then I launched into Computer technology, initially to sell my pictures on the Internet, but I soon discovered my ability to create Digital Paintings, and that is now my main activity, from my home in Shrewsbury, Shropshire, Birthplace of Charles Darwin.
