Irene describes herself as a pictorial photographer, with a leaning towards landscape, but has an interest in all types of photography. She has lectured throughout the country but will have to restrict herself in future bookings as age catches up. Her final Scottish tour will be the one already booked!
Irene now prints exclusively on Permajet art papers to obtain the fine art quality she desires in her pictures. She prefers subtle colours to define mood in her landscapes and loves misty conditions but occasionally finds a more colourful image. Irene finds that Permajet K-chrome Pigment inks with the Eco Flow system on the Epson 2880 printer give her the effect she wants and her success in National and International Exhibitions proves that the combination of inks and papers works for Irene's images.
In recent years she has concentrated on interpreting the landscape and villages of France, using delicate colour and soft images to convey the mood. But her new season's lecture features trips to the Hebrides and Cairngorms in 2010 as well as her latest trip to France. The next one will feature autumn in Scotland 2011 plus other images from England and France the working title is Dawn till Dusk and it will be ready for the 2012/13 season.
Irene cannot imagine a life without photography - it is a passion which is as strong today as when she first started. There is a compulsion to take and show pictures and although she appreciates all types of photography, her main interest is in landscape. She is at her happiest in the countryside with her camera on her tripod.
