Mericefotografix: I feel proud and privileged to have been selected in October 2005 by Leeds Fine Artists, thus becoming their first-ever exhibiting photographer. I started taking photographs in March 2005 when my friend Margaret Hockney said I had a good eye. I held my first public display of work in Burton Agnes Hall courtyard gallery in May 2005. I have since exhibited in many galleries around Yorkshire. All of my images are created from my own original photographs, sometimes with dramatic effects and sometimes very subtle. I try to visualise a finished idea in my mind and hope to control the outcome. It doesn’t always work but it sure can be fun. I like to portray the world as I see it. I believe that my being partially sighted can only help me to look at things differently and with an abstract view. At 55 – an age were most people are winding down, getting ready to retire – my life took on a new beginning. Im now 69 living in Kilham the heart of the “Hockney Trail” still creating, retired and having fun
