What makes me, me:
My belief that there is something other than the materiality of the body. I feel mostly me when involved within the communication process of making art. Thus opening up the possibility that myself as the maker, and potentially the viewer, may encounter a magical or spiritual moment of enlightenment of something previously unknown or unfelt.

I believe that each individual has a vibrational note/sound and that all of these notes form together to create a beautiful cosmic symphony. So at a most basic level I’m that note. I often think about the quality of “me” when I was about two years old. I know that is not me because the self evolves over time with experiences. But that note was at it’s clearly expressed at that time and will be my note for at least this life time. The more I practice, the more I feel I can express that note more clearly again.

The long version takes 62 years, so I guess the short one will have to suffice 😊
I am similar to everyone else in that I’m a mixed bag of DNA, Experiences, beliefs and life force. As to what makes me, me in the unique sense, then I guess the above mixed bag is different to everyone else’s mixed bag. I artistic terms I make what only I can make from my mixed bag and couldn’t be say Picasso, on the other hand he couldn’t be me either…..

Being creative in a visual sense, and with the written word. A very large dose of humour, and being kind to everyone you know, and to those you meet in daily life. Absolutely love music, listening and playing. A love of animals, and trying to protect them worldwide.
