London-born, now living in Minneapolis, Minnesota.

I'm a photographer and printmaker working with the traditional photographic processes of platinum-palladium and gelatin-silver printing, the contemporary polymer photogravure process, and the book-arts.

I offer traditional darkroom lab services and bookbinding, and I make portfolio cases for other photographers and artists too. I also teach workshops.

What a weird winter in Minnesota. No snow and grey skies, day after day. I expect more from you, Minnesota.

On Wednesday I taught a fun, one-on-one clamshell case workshop at the studio in NE Minneapolis. We started by making a small 5×7″ 3-flap folio, just to get used to working with book cloth and adhesives. We then made an 8x10x1″ clamshell case, covered in navy blue Cialux book cloth with a cutout for a label.

Here I am, once again. I moved instances and kept my followers, but will have to start posting anew.
