# About me

At heart I guess I'm a surrealist because I paint, sculpt and digitise the territory somewhere between dream and reality.

I'd easily become bored with a single medium or a single theme, so I dabble in all sorts of media and explore divergent ideas. Hence, there must be something for everybody here including, perhaps, you.

Not only do I explore different media, but I combine them. Thus a scuplted figure could become an actor set in a photographed scene with a watercolour backdrop, all combined in a photo-manipulation. I've followed this line of thinking for more than a couple of decades with early works being finished in the darkroom rather than the computer.

I joined Deviantart to share my efforts, meet like-minded creative people and to be challenged to learn. I'm interested in the history of art and concepts behind art, including yours. I appreciate your visits, favs and comments and look forward to viewing, learning from and being inspired by your art.

I retain the copyright of my art work, photographs and sculptures. If you wish to use anything, just ask and permission will likely be given for any reasonable use. Thank you.
