Retro-modern - that's what you can call my work.
My palette is loud - I dream in colour.

--------
It's been a broken journey.
I discovered paint first as a child in junior school - used only black and grays much to the dismay of the art teacher - also, scribbled obsessively with pen and pencil; pages and pages - anything and everything.
Then virtually nothing -
After a hiatus of years, decades, living alone in Dubai, fed-up with pub crawling, slipping into depression, unearthed a dried out box of water colours during a clean up my daughter's desk - four years after she'd left to join her mother in London.
It was a dam burst - I been painting since -
Art ? If it is true - it is.
That was 14 years ago.
In London now - the light is different - the air free; starting to dream again - different dreams.
