Salmon

There are those who would dismiss Atlantic salmon as an unworthy fish because it’s farmed,  and I guess they have a point. But to nip down to the supermarket (yes, I know) and come back with something that is presentable,

Salt & Pepper Squid

Squid is the only fish I know how to catch or clean, and on our annual beach holiday I go squidding each day. Fresh squid is deliciously tender and sweet,  and over the course of two weeks it gets cooked

Mike’s Octopodi

I have been discussing charcoal with my friend and tennis buddy Mike for some time, in particular octopus, which I have not cooked on charcoal. Yesterday when Mike’s and my teams played each other he hosted a post-match barbie, and I was

Single Light Food Photography

  I used to do quite a bit of food photography, almost all of it shot with natural light. This was because I was shooting for a magazine and I’d be doing shots in restaurants during the day. It was

Document your work! I'm about to start a book base Document your work! I'm about to start a book based on work I did in Venice 1992-1995, and it's great to know that a Kodachrome of the finished work that I started on the bridge is in a little yellow box ready to be scanned. (And yes, I'd forgotten that I did this and was sad to think I'd lost all those early pieces, even though at the time I was glad because a cafe bought them.) #venice #35mm #kodachrome #hp5

What’s Next for Team Dave?

2023 was mainly directed to working towards a solo show in August. This show formed part of the SALA (South Australian Living Artists) Festival and was held in Adelaide. It brought with it many wonderful things and made me very tired. I am now trying to recharge after three very challenging years. (Challenging, that is, by my standards.) I'm still working on a couple of series in 2024 though, and we'll see how that goes.

2021-22 saw the completion of a Masters Degree in Contemporary Art at UniSA. This was a return to full time study for the first time since 1984.

In 2024 I am developing idea for some new work, "The Sea Before Dawn." We'll see what happens I guess.
