I take photographs as a way of making pictures rather than to accurately record what I see.

Making a photo is a translation of a selected part of our 3D surroundings into a 2 dimensional image.

Looking with an intuitive quality of attention, I am drawn by glimpses of visual qualities which, together, intimate an unexpected order within a rectangular format.

Searching for the extraordinary in the ordinary, I work with the camera to try and find and hold it.

The variations offered by digital technology make possible an exploration and refinement of visual qualities and their arrangement which echoes my previous work as an abstract painter.

When this activity is successful, the images signify that which transcends their content, that which can be seen but not spoken of.
