Inspired by nature and art

As a photographer now based in York, England, I grew up in Beverley, a small market town in East Yorkshire, surrounded by the beautiful chalkland hills of the Yorkshire Wolds. As a child my family moved to Sweden and it was there that I became interested in both nature and photography. After returning to the UK, I graduated from Bangor University with an MSc in Ecology. Although, I only briefly practised as an ecologist, I did continue to pursue my passion for nature through photography. In recent years I have also undertaken other creative work such as painting and woodcarving of natural subjects; birds being my favourite.

Nature is my primary inspiration. I am often attracted to botanical motifs such as trees and leaves. Images are initially captured on my mobile phone and then digitally crafted through online apps. Besides nature I am inspired by fine art painting, in particular the work of David Hockney and Vincent Van Gogh. I am amazed at how these artists often turn the ordinary into something wonderful. I guess my love of art and these artists has led to my pictures often having a painterly appearance about them.

I sell and exhibit my work in UK shops and galleries. Encouraged by my sales I decided to go online, and for me ETSY was the obvious choice as a way to reach out to customers who are looking for something a bit different. I hope you enjoy browsing through my shop, and if you would like to ask any questions do get in touch and I'll be happy to help.
