Photography - Macro, Botanical, Fflower, Jurassic Coast, Abstracts, optical art painting
Explore new dimensions through macro close up photography and enjoy the opportunity to broaden your visual perspective seeing details often missed by the naked eye. By enlarging the miniscule and revealing the natural beauty and detail within, I create images that hover on the cusp between reality and abstraction. Botanicals, flowers and Jurassic Coast - from ammonites to crystals and petrified wood. I have a new range of pure Abstracts; some with a nautical theme. Also geometric Optical Art abstract painting, Archival Giclée prints on stretched canvas and art papers.
