Born 2/8/75 in North Devon on a very hot summers day. I live in Brighton.
I stumbled upon art 9 years ago and have learnt everything i know through my own experience and through my own unguided ignorant trials and errors...the role of failure being essential.
I was fortunate to meet and paint with many talented graffiti artists here, locals, migrants & international passers through. The scene in Brighton was extremely viberant and inspiring with' Le shop' ran by Rarekind drawing in world renown talents across the whole spectrum of street art.
I started because i wanted to be able to do it....simply.....then it just took doing it!

No formal art training....though have an interest in Psychology and colour theory, Science&mathematical design, lighting& moood,architecture, art deco and classical cinematograhy. I want to engage in synethiseastic study so as to produce shapes that represent sounds and include the sounds as part of the work of art. I have grand ideas not constricted by dogmatic formulaic education....only constricted by time and money.....and my apprehension to use the artistic discourse needed to persuade the minds of art enthusiasts (who want words with their pictures) to give credence to something they wont truely be able to comprehend....or maybe thats just me being pretentious....
