Contemporary Abstract Photographer

About Me

A seventh generation photographic artist, with an eye for the abstract. An improvisational,experimental, conceptual, impressionistic vision. Fundamental graphics, colours, patterns,shapes, textures, reflections without contextual expectations. Visual interpretations, when lacking imposed reference points, allow viewers to engage their own imaginations.

Cameras simply record light, images, evidence: point and shoot. Exposure breathes life, energy, saturation, vividness.

Our visualization of photographic art is not about reproducing reality, it’s about discovering colourful beauty in the material beast that surrounds us.

My Jazz Story

I grew up with my pop playing jazz albums. He was cool, I could play a Rolling Stones or Beatles album, he would play a Herb Alpert or Cal Tjader record. For my first live concert ever Pop took me to see Louis Armstrong - only then did I get to go see The Dave Clark 5... So I still listen to jazz, and go to jazz concerts - more and more as I get older!
