Mary-Jennifer McDowell has joined our group of teachers and comes with a firm background in art and teaching, and of course a love of photography. Her degree in Fine Art, Design and Photography was from the Luminy School of Art in the South of France and graduated as a school teacher at Roehampton University of Surrey with Art as her specialist subject in 2002. Jen has been a teacher and Art coordinator for seven years and last year became a part-time supply teacher in order to spend more time training and working as a photographer. As she says, “I now work as a freelance photographer for the Oxford Magazine and I sell some of my work as images for peoples’ walls. I have had a camera and paintbrush in my hands for as long as I can remember. I love to capture unique moments in time: an individual’s complex emotions, the singular moment when people connect with each other, a lonely figure in the distance. As a creative person, the way the light falls, harmonies of colour, textures and shapes also have an important place in my work. My ultimate wish is to inspire others to use their creativity through the wonderful world of photography and all it has to offer. To capture people interacting within urban settings and landscape environments, nature and human nature in perfect harmony.” |
