Although primarily engaged in environmental documentation since 1994 I have plans for more work with women in the Southern Forest Region of WA.My work continues to be film based and he prints are all made in a traditional darkroom.
Prints are available as silver gelatine prints from a real darkroom. I do not sell digital prints.
Welcome to Model Society! Your portfolio is beautiful! Can't wait to see how you branch out into the community :) Let us know if we can help with anything along the way!
Actually there is a branching I am interested in.
Working within many fields the fact that I have worked with women has been deleterious to my career exhibiting and publishing.
I have written a prolegomenon about this subject, which is an area I would like to see explored more deeply.

Currently the three folios of women on my website are not open for viewing because of the PC attitudes currently operating in Australia
I would like to see MS have a forum section where issues like the place of our work in current arts practice be discussed, I can't be the only person wanting such a forum
It's always so interesting to hear artists talk about their work and their process. Thanks for sharing this! I think you're in the right place to explore this with other artists!
We do have a bulletin board for announcements and collaboration opportunities. In the menu bar just select "Explore" then select the "Travel & Casting" tab.
