| Biggest Artistic Inspiration |
Living and working in the south of France, including meeting other creative people in the midi area of France. Working and exhibiting artwork locally in england and developing strong friendships with other artists, photographers. I have also gained much inspiration from exhibitions, in London and Paris, of 20th century artists and movements most prominenly early 20th century painting from impressionism to expressionism and all the avant-garde groups and movements like the Russian futurism, Dada and Surrealism. |

| Why Did You Become An Artist |
I have always had a passion for art and creativity in general. I like looking for creative solutions in anything and have enjoyed writing essays on art theory for my BA studies in Cambridge. Many problems of alienation in the modern world stem from a gulf between people and their creative potential. Art helps people retune to their environment and cultures in a very direct way. |
