About me: I..m an Artist, Painter, Sculptor, Sitarplayer, Multiinstrumentalist.
I have painted and sketched for my entire life, i do mostly depictive works using dreams memories and sometimes moments from travels also, although i never project images onto the canvases from photos, since i believe that "it boxes one in" it..s not about ethics or such, it just makes the journey too fixed-My travels to India and Nepal have influenced me deeply with new values for what art and music actually means to me. In many ways i..m anachronistic belonging in no certain tradition or place.
Form interests me, everything is form, Light Sound Matter-

hi peter, i managed to purchase on ebay a set of eno's oblique strategy cards, 3rd edition from 1979. as you can guess i'm quite a happy chappy. the seller indicated that they were a gift from the great man himself so i will need to create a shrine for them!
