Artist Portraits & Interviews

A selection of my portrait work with artists in the UK and New Zealand. You’ll find here actors, musicians, illustrators, singer songwriters, and dancers. I work with artists because I enjoy hearing how they create and learning about their latest projects. I should say, I have no expectation they’ll share any thoughts on their art. It’s always up to them. I’m quite comfortable in silence. Before you scroll, I encourage you to sample the work of musician and singer songwriter Robinson, who is pictured above. Thank you.

I work with artists because I enjoy hearing how they create and their latest projects. I should say, I have no expectation they’ll share any thoughts on their art. It’s always up to them. I’m quite comfortable in silence.

I have memories to cherish from each portrait session with the artists above. Principally, it is the time each artist has given me, and the kindness of having me raise and camera and release a shutter button. Thank you to all.
