Artist Statement I am a Photographer of British Parentage. I was born in Kenya in 1960 before Kenya gained independence. I have traveled a lot in the course of my quest to take images that depict the diversity of this wonderful world in which we live.
I have a particular interest in underwater images both video and stills. I will be hoping in the future to have many of these images available on ImageKind for print sales.
Location
Lllandysul, Ceredigion, West Wales, United Kingdom
I currently am re designing my website to include all my latest works of art and to improve the ease of navigation round my extensive collections of images.
Please watch this space for further information.
Thank you for your interest in my images and keep your eyes peeled for my new website in the near future.
Work and Education
My main areas of work are Digital Photography of Landscapes and Seascapes. I also have a large collection of unique underwater images depicting our oceans and their life today.
I also have an interest in nude figure work and my hero is the late Bob Carlos Clark. i hope in the future to have collections of my signed original images available for sale on here and for prints of many of them. Watch out for these arriving here.
Education
I trained at the Bournemouth Arts Institute in the mid 1980s I gained my BTEC diploma in design (photography) I then went into employment to keep an income coming in as I had a young family to feed and keep a roof over their heads. I took a job as a trainee medical Photographer in Poole in Dorset, UK.
I stayed there and undertook further training in applied photography leading up to me gaining a City & Guilds Diploma in Applied Photography. I then went on and gained an Advanced Diploma in Applied Photography. I staid in Medical photography and worked my way up until in the early 1990s I was a Senior medical Photographer in the UK NHS and the deputy DIstrict Head of Department for Medical Photography / Media Services for the Wessex area of the UK.
In December 1996 An accident at work changed the course of my career as following this accident I was made redundant. This gave me the chance to return to my true love of landscape, underwater and portrait and erotic / nude photography. I am thrilled to be able to show my portfolio of work accumulated over the last 25 years or so. I hope you enjoy viewing my images and feel that you would like to purchase an original limited addition a top quality print of one or more of my images.
Enjoy!
