ABOUT ME

Is man destroying the planet?

How much will it change in our lifetime?

My desire is to capture the beauty of nature wherever I go.

If I can depict it in harmony with man, so much the better.

Mostly black and white.

My current work is a limited edition, boxed, portfolio of 21 A3+,
black and white images, signed and numbered.
