Starting YouTube – Yae or Nae… that is the question.

Posted February 18, 2020October 2, 2020 mara72Posted in Creating Work, Life of an Artist, News

For a long time now I’m been pondering about starting a YouTube Channel for my photographic art. Honestly, I’ve hummed, harred and debated about it for years.  I love YouTube and follow a fair few channels on different subjects, but I kept butting my head again the issue of why for my own channel?  I mean […]

Faceless and Forgotten

Not as ‘Faceless and Forgotten’ as I’d have liked for this shoot…

Posted November 7, 2019October 2, 2020 mara72Posted in Creating Work, Life of an Artist, News, The Ghost Project

Sitting on a ‘Threshold’

Posted October 24, 2019October 2, 2020 mara72Posted in Creating Work, Life of an Artist, News, The Ghost Project

So what happens when you mix a bunch of candles, some old World War 2 huts, nature, and a camera wielded by someone on a spiritual quest of sorts? Err… you get this! ‘Threshold’ is one of the few images from ‘The Ghost’ project where I used props, in this case, candles. It was also […]

The Genesis of It All

Posted October 18, 2019October 2, 2020 mara72Posted in Creating Work, Life of an Artist, News

Every massive life change has at least one pivotal moment in time you can point to and say ‘now that was significant’. This was one of mine…

This Made Me Stupidly Happy

Posted September 27, 2019October 2, 2020 mara72Posted in Exhibitions and Shows, Life of an Artist, News

OK, so this is going to showcase my geekiness to the world. I can’t help it, this is just making me stupidly excited. Are you ready? Drum roll, please…

You don’t need to travel far away from find an inspiring place you didn’t knwo existed.

Well I never – Victoriana…

The Peace of the Dead
