As
a
graphic
design
student
in
London,
I
saw
some
of
J
M
William
Turner's
landscapes
and seascapes and was intrigued by his interpretation of light and the movement of water.
Now,
after
having
spent
over
30
years
as
a
designer,
I
have
started
photographing
long
exposure
seascapes,
mainly
at
sunrise
and
sunset
-
trying
to
capture
the
flowing
quality
of
water and time.
Usually,
photography
is
a
medium
that
freezes
a
moment
in
time
–
but
I
believe
my
work extends that moment so that the flow of time can be seen.
I
believe
my
technique
imparts
a
painterly
quality
to
my
artwork
and
offers
a
range
of
absorbing,
moody
images
capturing
the
fleeting
image
of
water
and
light
in
motion.
I
prefer
printing them on canvas which complements the effect.
