Many people only know Arthur Conan Doyle as the creator of Sherlock Holmes. I know him as a great Spiritualist who wanted to acquaint the World with this amazing phenomena. His interests in Spiritualism started in 1918 before his son’s tragic death in World War 1. Arthur risked his reputation and travelled to many areas of the World at his own expense to give talks and lectures on the subject. He was extremely interested in Spiritual Photography. He wrote many, many wonderful books on the subject and dedicated a great deal of time to writing The History Of Spiritualism Volume 1 and II. He has inspired me on many occasions and I have been fascinated by his dedication and belief. Arthur once wrote…... My one aim in life is that this great truth, the return and communion of the dead, shall be brought home to a material World which needs it so badly…...... This small painting using acrylics and graphite on paper is dedicated to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle with admiration.

My paintings follow the structure I was taught by the late Vera Diamond who was my teacher, mentor and friend. Vera Diamond was a psychotherapist and founding member of the British Autogenic Society. Vera studied Creative Mobilization Technique (CMT) with its creator Dr. Wolfgang Luthe (1922 - 1985), a German born research physician famous for his contribution to Autogenic Training and Therapy. Following Luthe's death in 1985 Vera became the foremost authority of CMT in England. I studied with her at the London Homoeopathic Hospital and later we worked extensively with children and adults in developing this process which leads to insights, self-healing and creativity.
