On an esoteric level “Who Am I” is the question I have been attempting to answer via my art works since I started producing art from an early age.<\/p>

In my childhood I started creating with pencil and paper and was commented as being excellent by my pre-school teacher in my rendition of a rooster I had painted.<\/p>

I specialized in cartooning from an early age inspired by Mad Magazine and Footrot Flats.<\/p>

This work moved into creative endeavors which were centred around my love for the science fiction of Arthur C. Clarke and Isaac Asimov.<\/p>

I started drawing and painting sci-fi and fantasy images as a result of this.<\/p>

As my interest grew in art I looked toward film making and animation trying out those methods as a point of expression.<\/p>

I studied arts at school specializing in sculpture and painting and introduced early digital computer art into my final school year as a senior in 1986.<\/p>

I then moved on to working with scanning, photograpy and photocopier working for Xerox which offered my opportunities to explore this medium.<\/p>

Pursuing my interests in art I attended the West Wollongong College Of Tafe studying an Associate Diploma In Fine Arts.<\/p>

During my two years of study at this institution discovered his deeper ability for drawing, printmaking, painting, sculpture and digital video creation and editing.<\/p>

During my schooling I exhibited my sculpture, painting and video work as part of my educational experience and went on to explore all these mediums in different ways.<\/p>

I had the opportunity of go to University and starting in second year because of my previous studies.<\/p>

The university system dulled my enjoyment of creativity although I did manage to discover a talent for film making yet to be more explored.<\/p>

I quit the University system and decided to concentrate on art creation through the use of computers experimenting with Amiga computers at the time.<\/p>

Meditation brought me to a greater understanding of my creativity and in doing so enabled me to realize my works are actual doorways to potential universes and found often that the viewers interpretation changed how a work would appear or appeal to them.<\/p>

I was urged by my friends to show my works and started printing them photographically on large format paper.<\/p>

I also discovered that he had a talent for CGI animation.<\/p>

I experimented with this ability and worked on several co-operative projects including one with Mark Pesce and Kevin Whitesides in 2005.<\/p>

After several exhibitions I decided to keep creating works solely for my own enjoyment of the creative process.<\/p>

What you see here on this site<\/a> is what I have kept of my works.<\/p>

I often felt the need to destroy my past to create my future.<\/p>

This snapshot of works over the last 20 years captures part of the progression and exploration of ideas of connectedness, connection to the other, parallel dimensions and otherworldly entities.<\/p>

I trust that you will enjoy my works and encourage you to buy one if you are actually interested in my art.<\/p>

I wish you enough.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
