As a child I faithfully copied everything in sight from cartoons through to fashion illustrations and in High School a whole new world was unveiled when I studied the various art movements. For me to become an artist seemed an impossibility! This is my attempt to resuscitate the visual artist within and I've called on 'Benten', (One of the Seven Lucky Gods of Japan) to guide me through the seas of change to keep my ship on course.
I also have a blog up and running and if ever you would like to please come and visit!
