Photography
Photography has always been a passion, and over time a way to capture the unexpected stories in a variety of places.
Paintings
I have been on an artistic journey since 1973.
Paintings have always been a passion, and over time were a way to capture the unexpected stories in a variety of places. Most of my paintings have focused on flowers and nature. These topics invariably bring me joy. The paintings have all been inspired by the places I lived in, from Central Africa to Southern India.
