Whatever it is that appears to manifest as my 'art', it is a process appearing as form so refined, that it occurs somewhat automatically...  Since a child, I have simply 'armed' myself with the relevant equipment, held it in my hand and the work flows out, be it holding pen, brush, pencil or chisel...  
On some level my art and my lifelong obsession with the metaphysical/esoteric merge, yet, keeping it simple, it's all very natural in a way I can't really articulate... 
I spent far too long working as a professional illustrator/designer. I'm currently trying to catch up with some rather obsessive carving...
