Selected comments from With Words and Wings

Completely love these pictures: would be willing to spend the children’s benefit on one
Beautiful, they fill me with a soft, sad longing.
Wonderful – better than church – more spiritual and moving!
Has left me in a peaceful contemplative mood! Thank you! They’re wonderful images.

Selected comments from I Love Peckham

Interesting take on Peckham life.
Very “Peckhamish” – would be good to see as postcards!
Very inspiring and deep sense of Belonging!
I love the way the letters become words that drift and flow into the image...
Wonderful – very dreamlike – a world with so many spirits in each place...
I love the combination of words and images – positive images of Peckham
