So what’s artistic inspirations all about then,well its to do with the passion I have for taking photos and then turning them into art ,something which grew out of starting at a young age by drawing with a pencil. This was at the age of eight,from there i slowly moved on to using charcoal watercolour and pastel,gradually i began to paint landscapes mainly from my imagination and anything which came to light. From there i developed an interest in architecture ,artists like constable picasso and van gogh roman and greek mythology followed by interior design art galleries pottery weaving
Seeing that art has been practically part of my life now for well over 30 years where despite wanting to go out there and work, I have always found solace in either painting or going out with my camera.Which brings us on to the photography this started when i was about 15 and unlike what you see on the right back then all i had to take photos with was a 35mm camera. It was just generally snapshots until i suddenly became interested in people and had the opportunity of doing a wedding.
As with the art a computer and graphic tablet has now taken centre stage and assists me in taking that to a whole new level by combining traditonal art skills with digital technology and computer software like photoshop so that i can create digital paintings photo manipulations and animations which requires a program like Squirlz Water Reflections .Now if that wasn’t enough to satisfy one’s creative juices i also do logos buisness cards and now have an appetite for building websites something i have enjoyed doing since dabbling with dreamweaver and serif web plus
