I've always made pictures. As a child I used pencil and paint, as most kids do. As an adult I used words to make pictures, publishing four books of fiction. I lost touch with painting and drawing after completing A Level Art. I wanted to study Art further but people told me that it wasn't a proper, sensible subject and I believed them. It was the wrong decision as I didn't even want to be proper or sensible. Instead of Art, I studied Psychology and Philosophy and later Social Work. I spent most of my adult life working in mental health services. It was only much later that I reconnected with Art. I have a lot of ground to make up. Should be good.
