welcome
Thank you for visiting my website.
These are the kind of things I produce:
- 'Texture abstracts', which are comprised of several layers of photographs, combined to make one image. (See here for further explanation).
- Scratchy (or distressed) black and white photographs, carefully aged and drawn on, in a similar style to Joel-Peter Witkin or EJ Bellocq (but largely inspired by Witkin, and also Melodie McDaniel's work in the film 'Se7en').
- Relatively normal, more or less documentary style photographs - which can be found in my photoblog.
- Digital-only 'splatter art' - created only on a Linux computer, using a variety of complicated techniques and code; similar to and inspired by Jackson Pollock and John Squire.
I will be adding other forms of artwork over time; I will soon add music and writing (song lyrics and short stories).
Signed, Limited Edition and Open Edition prints of all my art and photographic work are available throughout this site.
From November 2010, a selection of my Limited Edition prints are available to view and buy locally, at the following galleries/outlets:
- the superb, environmentally aware Around Gallery in Strathpeffer
- the wonderful, modern, and very welcoming Beauly Gallery, near Beauly
- more coming soon!
I am based in the Scottish Highlands, and my current work explores the textures, landscapes, mythology, people and history of this vibrant area.
If you wish to find out more about me, go the about section, or to this page of my influences and inspirations.
