Artist Statement
There is nothing to be invented in the visual world, it's all there and been photographed a million times.
I don't photograph glorious sunsets, fantastic landscapes, flowers, animals or beautiful things (or people).
I find myself again and again looking at ordinary everyday things, at rubbish, backyards, at the man in the street, looking at things really close up and trying to find beauty in their colour and form. Sometimes I find that beauty, more often I don't. Now and then I am satisfied with what I have photographed, occasionally very satisfied and sometimes well, I just start again and keep on looking.
In my search I constantly thank God for giving me the eyes to see.
