About me

After 35 years in industry and business consultancy, it became time to rethink my life, find a new focus and make some changes. So, I gave it all up and signed up to university to study for a BA Hons in photography, so that I could develop my artistic side. I graduated in 2020 and have been continuing to develop my art skills and practice since then.

Current focus

I am an artist who mainly uses photography in my work. I generally photograph objects or places rather than people.

However, I’m currently spending a lot of my time making handmade paper and have developed a range of papers: plain, dyed (natural dyes), and blended with fruit.

Projects

Litter collected from the shoreline of Loch Ness and photographed in the studio.

Some images from this series are:
