CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

traveling artists, please stop in, i live in a studio building filled with artists.

i like to meet and learn about other people and places.I'm into art and urban spaces

I'm a photographer/artist, I am always searching for de-industrialization and depopulation, lots of urban and industrial landscapes, visits to abandoned sites and crawling through old buildings and factories.

my work can be viewed at www.forgottenplaces.zenfolio.com
I have a keen interest in the visual arts as it represents most of my life and what i am interested in. i was a photography teacher for 5 years, making art is now my full-time job.

I am arts and culture minded, I enjoy meeting and learning about others who have this focus as well. I enjoy good conversation , really anything intelligent or totally silly but most i find the humour in life.

i work as a boat tour driver in the summer on the rivers of winnipeg. i'm historically minded. if you are taking the train , there is a four hour stop over. the spot i work at is at the forks; where the two rivers meet, near the train station. come visit , i give a very good tour of Winnipeg's history.

PHILOSOPHY

intent on enjoying the interesting people in life. i never get too excited, laid back sort, but don't think i am not focused and serious about what i am doing.

l've given up on true beauty and have settled, rusting and decaying subjects for photography. Very urban, i love cities.
