Painting and mixed media.

In 1993 I lived for a year on a small island in Scotland called Holy island (www.holyisland.org) as a buddhist monk under tibetan refuge lamas. My art is influenced by undercurrents which linger from the experiences and altered states experienced during meditation training in a semi retreat situation in a largely unspoilt natural environment. I have lived in Liverpool since then and am now a house husband with three kids

I like to experiment/play with paint, other media and my own experiences.

The artworks I produce are often the result of a long drawn out thought process, the expression of an acquired obsession. Works are created sporadically usually during a period of change or altered arousal.
The media i choose often depends on what i see around me at the time I need to create, I prefer to use what I already have.

My art is an expression of my thoughts, mainly questions.....sometimes I pause......
