ARTIST STATEMENT: I come to photography with a painter's eye. For me, it's about the light. Sunlight, shadows, reflections and transparency. Light bouncing off reflective surfaces, light revealing structure. Objects illuminated, objects emerging from darkness. I work to capture a sense of place and the feeling of the moment. In my current photographs, I’m particularly interested in exploring aspects of light, pattern and texture in the natural world. And, growing out of a long career as an Interior and furniture designer, I am fascinated by the intersection and contrasts of natural and built environments, and the vibrancy of the urban landscape.
