Photo-Artist & Printmaker - Associate of The Royal Photographic Society
As an Artist & Printmaker living in West Cornwall much of my inspiration is taken from the wild Celtic landscape that I have loved and lived in for most of my life. The coast, the sea, the moors, isolated places attract me where I can study and capture our natural world. I look to shape, form and design from the abundance of nature within the Cornish landscape to capture essence and abstraction.
I am a multi-disciplinary artist who uses etching, photogravure, cyanotype and collagraphs, all original prints from my Gunning Etching Press. Using mixed media and any other form of mark-making that captures the essence of the Cornish coast is part of my practice. I became an Associate of The Royal Photographic Society in 2011 which was the foundation of my life as an artist.
I have exhibited at photographic salons throughout UK, in London (Royal Albert Hall), Vienna, New Mexico, Bonn & Cologne, Germany and Nagoya Japan. I am also represented by the photographic agencies ARCANGEL & ALAMY.
