I am a retired scientist, a poet, an amateur photographer, and a digital artist. In the latter role I combine my knowledge of mathematics with my skills in digital image processing to create abstract works of art by manipulation of an original digital photograph. The result presents the viewer with a new reality which they are free to explore with their own imagination.
As a photographer I am instinctively drawn to the natural and urban landscape and it is here that I most readily find the material for my work. I take my inspiration from simple compositions and often apply photographic techniques, such as Selective Focusing or Intentional Camera Movement, to simplify a scene further by making irrelevant detail invisible.
My processing workflow can best be described as a journey of discovery. While experimenting with a variety of techniques I set off to reveal new shapes and textures, until I arrive at a new and exciting geometry. Further fine tuning and adjustments to tonal values and the colour palette then takes me to the final image.
