Serendipity Strikes, Again!

Sometimes the world conspires to be kind to you!! I was in the middle of explaining my artwork to a couple who had just walked into the gallery. They were enthusiastic and that tends to make me more loquacious. Suddenly, the woman quite rightly interrupted me and said “My husband is the publisher of Photo Review and he won’t tell you that because he is not prone to self -promotion.”

I stopped in my tracks. Photo Review is certainly one of the oldest photo magazines in Australia being continually published monthly for 27 years and, by reputation, purportedly the most prestigious photographic publication in Australia.

I paused, reflected. Shut up and listen my brain commanded me.

Almost an hour later, David, publisher of Photo Review and Belinda Sullivan left the gallery with the promise of a visit by the editor of the magazine, Don Norris to see whether Don might see the same uniqueness in my art David had and whether he might be interested writing an article about this uniqueness. I sat back at my desk, exhilarated.

To have your endeavors and artworks recognized as being unique by your peers such as the owner of one of the leading publications and influences in the photographic world in Australia is the ultimate endorsement creatively.

Here is the link to read the leading story in Photo Review’s May 2022 Issue. Thank you Don Norris for the most intelligent encapsulation of my journey and work to date.

Enjoy the reading the article.
