BIOGRAPHY

A photographer with no art background, unable to draw or paint, photography was going to be a good way of expressing my art vision and creativity by using the nature and the urban environment around.

​

Gachou walks, looks, sees, stops and photographs!

​

I enjoy discovering the unpredictable in nature and urban environment.  The images presented here, are illustrating my point very distinctly.  My photography has a quirky appearance as well as a creative approach.  

​

 "Guildford Photographic Society" a camera club I joined in 2013 and have exhibited with GPS in their biennial exhibition at various venues, Guildford House Gallery 2016, at Guildford Institute 2018 and Guildford Cathedral 2022

​

The kiln Photo Studio in Badshot Lea in Surrey where I am a member  since 2017 and I take part in any exhibitions organised such as: SAOS (Surrey Artitst Open Studios) always in the first two weeks of June.  Also exhibited at the Farnham Pottery Centre and Institute of Guildford. 

​

In 2018 " Digitali" a group of four keen photographers decided to  exhibit  together. Digitali had their first exhibition in January 2019 at the Institute of Guildford and in November 2019 at Farnham Pottery Centre.

​

"Guildford Arts" invited me to exhibit with six other artists in 2019.  And again in April 2022 with another artist at the Institute of Guildford.

A member of the U3A Photography Group for which I run photoshoot outings and give some advice to new members.  I also do a review of photos to help anyone to take better images.
