Portraits

Portraiture offers a path into understanding our fragility as a human being through capturing the passing of time, emotion and character. In the portrait Echoes of Time I have used an abstract space which relates to my practice as a Fine Art painter. In portrait photography I use light as I use colour in painting. I use depth of field as I use a brush or create a brush stroke. I mainly shoot portraiture outdoors using natural light. I have included one portrait taken in the studio which uses light to create a refined quality to the Portrait of Ron, My Beloved Partner.
