Introduction

 'The Poetics Of Space' by Gaston Bachelard and the transient landscape both rural and industrial have been a catalyst for my work for many years

A sense of place is important to me, and the response, is ultimately born out of integrity of that place.   I subscribe to the honesty of seeing and the integrity of the image. Ultimately,  I use the vehicle of landscape and a direct visual language to express a perspective of the place I inhabit .
