I love to create art because it connects me to source and teaches me to remember things that I didn’t know I forgot. One eureka at a time..

I like to create art which mimics flora from other worlds. I try to take atmospheric qualities into account when designing the pieces so that you can imagine the environment based on the specimen(s)
Where do you find inspiration?I find most of my inspiration on walks, when I practice archery, writing music, or riding..pretty much anything where meditation meets repetition. Essentially Sufism, Routine paves the way for a new subject.
What would you do with $25,000?I would travel overseas and work with as many collectives as 25k would fund. I would learn as much as possible and teach at the same time. Italy, Bali, and the Channel Islands for a start. I lived in Guernsey when I was younger and would like to return for a bit to check out the studios there, Perhaps start my own there if the island is still as gorgeous as I remember.
