Urban Overcrowding
"My highest priority when portraying a subject is to capture its consciousness. This is important to me. Birds and animals are seldom random or vague; they are focused on their world with real intensity. It is this intensity I want to capture. When you encounter a wild thing in its own habitat there is a moment when you regard it and it regards you and the rest of the world just becomes background. This is a very real and special connection and one I want to share through my art." - Guy Hobbs
Guy Hobbs lives and works from his home studio in Blockhouse, Nova Scotia.
