For over forty years I have painted and created collage and multi-dimen­sion­al works. More recently, I have ventured seriously and with passion into pho­tog­ra­phy.

Looking through my camera lens, I bring a lifetime of art expe­ri­ence to this medium. My sense of colour and the beauty of light greatly influence my pho­tog­ra­phy.

Simply recording my obser­va­tions is not enough, however. It is important that my pho­tographs show not only what I see but also a different way of seeing—that they reveal the over­looked and evoke an emotional response.

I move into a deeper way of seeing when I am with my camera. With quiet attention, the com­mon­place appears beautiful, without artifice. Wandering alone, I hear the silence and breathe in the hidden.
