“ I went to this area to photograph landscapes - specifically panoramic landscapes. I envisioned trees and fog, the Willapa Bay and distant islands. The universe had its own plans. Sufficiently nudged in a different direction, I abandoned the panoramic landscapes so I could concentrate on making abstracts that look like a starry night sky. That’s one of the wonderful things about artmaking: there is a surprise around every artistic corner. It could almost be said that this is the reason to be an artist. At the very least, it’s a reason to be out there, in the world, camera in hand, waiting to see what unexpected wonder will reveal itself next.”

“ Artists don’t get down to work until the pain of working us exceeded by the pain of not working.”

Taken on the Tiwi Islands, Melville Island… I used to live there… Well hopefully five weeks counts… I do miss my friends I made there. Scratches head and wonders how they are, and thinks I must take Cyan there one day, as he will love it there… I think it is in his blood… I was the art co-ordinator at Tiwi Designs…

“ It takes a lot of imagination to be a good photographer. You need less imagination to be a painter, because you can invent things. But in photography everything is so ordinary; it takes a lot of looking before you learn to see the ordinary.”
David Bailey
