My artistic process, much like my life, has been multi-faceted and exploratory. I was born and raised in HongKong, of Goan parentage, and came to Canada in 1967 for higher studies.<\/p>\n
In 1990, on one of my adventures, I travelled to Salt Spring Island, attracted by the catchy name, and within a space of 2 days bought a piece of land that I was equally enchanted with. \u00a0It took another 13 years before I was able to move here on a permanent basis, proving, in my case, that patience does pay off in the end!<\/p>\n
I feel blessed to be in a place where I am continually inspired by my environment and where I can immerse myself in my creative passion for art, photography and the poetic forms of haiku and tanka.<\/p>\n
My photographic subject matter is varied, inspired by ordinary moments of everyday life; it is special moments like these, and the camera\u2019s ability to capture their essence, that move my spirit, often taking me beyond the purely visual to a timeless place where the mystery and wonder of daily life is realized.<\/p>\n
