New Exhibitor to Oxton Artists - Liz Glover Hadwin


LIZ HADWIN-GLOVER – “Photography is something I have almost always done, have done with serious intent, and recently come back to. I take pictures of people and make traditional black and white prints. I like the print-making process –“drawing with light” – and the beauty and sensitivity of black and white photography. I like the way people show something on themselves to camera”
