 SWAA is fortunate to have Colin Chatfield as one of their members.

Colin is a photography, well actually he is a "photo-artist" since he likes to digitally manipulate his work.

Colin often instructs at workshops including ones at Reflections.  He has agreed to work on producing a newsletter for SWAA along with Tara Magee.
