Artist Statement:
The artistic philosophy that
has inspired me in composing
my photographs over the last
fifty plus years is really
quite simple: It is to capture
something extraordinary in
what is otherwise commonplace
to the casual observer. I am
fortunate that the gallery
which represents me in
Montreal, Beaux Arts David
Astrof, has shared my point of
view. While the artist’s
conception is important
in-so-far-as it expresses
something original (and/or
freshens how we perceive the
world around us), I believe it
is equally important that the
concept be inspiring and not
merely cleverly unique.
Photography is not currently
my main source of income. My
livelihood is management
consultation work which takes
me around the world. It is
traveling, with its expatriate
experience of being apart from
the familiar, which infects my
vision and shapes my choice of
perspective. This fuels my
inspiration to create a
photograph imbued with the
magic of that particular
setting at that particular
moment in time. While travel
is a big part of what
motivates my creative process,
it is this “stranger in a
strange land” experience which
influences all my work.

Harvey, having known you for forty years, I have witnessed first hand your zest for life and your passion for photography. With the proliferation of technology, I delight in the fact that you are now able to share your amazing talents with the world. The images you share are indeed an inspiration to all who treasure the beauty of life.
I am also proud of your association with the Art for Healing Foundation, participating in the healing process by donating some of your beautiful work to improve the lives of those infirmed in health care institutions.
