“I am a photographic artist. My work is impressionistic and underpins a world released from everyday reality. None of my photos are digitally manipulated. None of it is computer-generated imagery. My images are the direct result of the impressions I have when shooting. I use a unique photographic technique which
I developed with time and lots of trial and error! Over the years I have reached a point where I can say that I “paint” with my camera. I try to capture the infinite variations of our everyday reality, releasing colour from its form. The result is a colour-dominated impressionistic world. Out of this world, I create single shots, or increasingly, themed series such as The Mask Series, Blue Lady Series,
or currently, The Data Series, where I am investigating the avalanche and
overwhelming invasion of technological data into our lives. I want and need to reach people emotively, with my work and ideas. The camera is the tool I have chosen to achieve this.”
