P G Gates' photostream

Photography
petergates.com familiar-territory.blogspot.com/My photographic practice concentrates on the poetry of the everyday. I aim to lift common and mundane objects and scenes from their banality and through the camera fix them with a momentary aura. Focusing simply on the peripheral I am interested giving such subject matter new and unexpected signification. Exposing a bridge between a shared reality and my own experience of the world.

Drawings
drawnline.blogspot.com is my drawing blog. It is used as a way of presenting pages from on-going sketchbooks.
These images are by no means intended to be finished works in themselves but have been selected because they may be of interest to others as examples of quick intuitive, observational studies of the world about us.
