Wendy Paton: An award winning fine art photographer, Wendy Paton was in the throws of a successful ground breaking career training and driving Standardred race horses in New York, when in 1981 her interest in photography emerged.

Hillman Gallery. Her first solo exhibition in New York followed in March of 2010 at Sous Les Etoiles Gallery.
