I am a
self-taught photographer. I was born in Stratford, Ontario and have lived
in a number of towns and cities in Ontario, Manitoba and New Brunswick, as
well as a two-month working visit to Shannon, Ireland. I currently live in
Ottawa.
Most of
my images are taken in urban areas and capture the small visual delights that
go unnoticed by the majority of people. I rarely manipulate an image outside
of the camera. Since
1971 I have been selling my work privately as well as in galleries in the
Ottawa area, Toronto and Barcelona, Spain. My works hang in public, private
and corporate collections in Canada, the United States, Europe, Australia
and New Zealand.
