Do you think it is important for an artist to have a speciality?
We should all take photographs because we love doing so
and our imagery is dictated by our personal experiences
and visions. A speciality tends to show through in every
photographer’s portfolio. It is how we work; we take
pictures, look for patterns and expand those patterns.
Specialities can change over time though as new patterns
emerge. In the beginning I thought I was a landscape
photographer, but now there is more figurative work in my
portfolio.
Do you think your speciality will change over time?
Yes. Life moves in a forward direction and as I change so too
will my work.
