Swans' World

Welcome to a world of photographic images taken over decades, dessicated, tinkered with, squeezed, stretched and parted from their partnered pixels only to be reintroduced to each other at a later date.

My images are created with a view to print on to various media, all started with the idea of printing on to leather. We are now afforded the technology with which to print on to other media including glass and metals. Elements that can be bent and stretched much like the pixels I work with. Used within and without.

Fishing in the Blue

Make the square a circle fish.
An intense love of the Moorish and Arabic,
the patterns and the colours.
It works!

Paisley '89

An Iris. Glass broken. Under lit in my small studio in Brixton 1989.
A gem for me. Printing is endless. Silk, Glass, canvas or cotton.

Burnt Bark




Well there is nothing as perfect as that which nature can deliver.
Originally shot in 2006,  a fallen palm struck by 
lightening during the winter storms. The detail is fabulous.
The idea of multi media runs throughout this 'pattern sequence'. 
Print into silk, canvas, leather.

Archway

A shot from 2004. Early morning after a surprise frost in Southern Spain.
An adventure into a world of walls and shifting perspectives.
A glimpse of the shadow of C. S. Lewis' 'Narnia'  merging with the trees!
Print into silk, canvas, leather, paper.
