Irene Burdell
Profile
I am a grandmother to three grandchildren two girls and one boy . I have a son who is a professional photographer in advertising and a daughter who lives in France.
I started taking photography more seriously when I joined Redbubble at the end of August 2007 . I had only ever taken family snaps and holiday pictures .
I have recently bought a Canon EOS D400 SLR camera.
I have learnt a lot since joing RB and I am still learning every day . I do photography mainly for my own pleasure but would like to think other people may enjoy viewing it too .. I just wish I had started many years ago.
I also paint watercolours and I am self taught , but since taking up photography I haven’t had much time to paint. The encouragement I have received while on redbubble has been overwhelming.
