*** FIRE, FIRE, FIRE....... and fire. Fire's not bad either.
*** Alternative lifestyles and revolutionary ideas that WORK...... I’ve been around all the ones that don’t. I hope Obama's for real.
*** The Producrion/Arts Process - ever expanding ways of making those amazing pictures in your head into realities, and the arenas in which to do them.
*** Illusions, Spectacles, and Things From The World Of Wonder - I want everyone to overcome their pettinesses and conflicts by staring wide-eyed at something so incredible, that they can’t think negatively any more.
*** The Beautiful People ...... and what got them that way.
*** Ways of being good to people but still pushing the world forward... doing my piece

FLAMBEAUX Im recovering from the shock of my world coming down; a candle started a fire in me and Abby's beautiful apartment and burned it down. How ..... ironic Posted at 4:20 AM Oct 8 view more
I am Flambeaux, master of flames, ex-vagabond and clown, pyro artist for the stars, shaman and performer who doesn't mind the struggle as much as you might think.
I am a multi-faceted visual artist in many mediums- painting, sculptured costumes, props, words and music... But most of all, I am a producer of beauty and controversy; using FIRE and the flames which I love. I also make sure to include beautiful women whom I adore, for in them dwells the goddess of fire my one true lover. (That's right baby! I'll- make you a fire star!)
My waters run deep and I fear never getting all of what's inside of my heart out into the world! That would be simply AWFUL!
I left Scotland in 1987, young and penniless journeying to live in a world of my own creation, criss-crossing the globe, finally resting in America and New York City; my beloved Babylon and Field of Dreams. It was wild, hard and dangerous; with beauty peeping through the cracks... It's upon those cracks that I have built my vision... a vision based on FIRE.
I have worked hard to become the most extreme and fantastical fire-performer possible. After much time and hard work I am now there and humbly approach you and the gods for the privilege of moving to even greater achievements and heights.
My intentions are good, and I am a romantic, it's true - but I ain't no sucker! I remain faithful to standing for what is outside of the norm and what is challenging. Sometimes, that puts me in the firing line, but I'm not afraid to fight for my beliefs.
I hide nothing- why should I? Even mistakes one has made, hold a host of potential lessons. Besides, all we are IS potential. So be it.
Who I'd like to meet: ***Artists - artists who are focussing their powers on success, but using their OWN formulae to achieve it. ***Pyros - pyros who, like me, seek not to destroy but to create. ***Mentors - in the arts, acting, business, production, the ways of the world.
