Biography:
Born 16th February 1962 in the UK, I pursued several varied and interesting career paths before finally settling into the realm of art in late 2004. With a degree in Botany from Manchester University, and employment in short supply in the early 1980's, I became a technical author and then a computer programmer until 1999. With interests in scuba diving and photography I then gave up the technical world to become an underwater photographer and film-maker. I've also tried my hand at writing and music. In 2004 I moved to the USA to create a photography and art business - Magic Photo-Video, in Memphis, TN. AWARDS and HONOURS:
