Bio
For as long as I can remember, I have always gravitated towards things like storytelling, poetry, and philosophy; essentially, anything which encourages us to see the world in a different way or to feel something we may never have felt before.
​
I am predominately self educated, and for many years lived a very isolated/reclusive life, where my only real influences came from art or classic literature.
​
But having always read widely, I took a lot of personal inspiration from ancient writers - and later from the Renaissance Ideal of being a Polymath, which is all about striving to become a master of many different fields.
​
As such, my work tends to be quite varied.
But, in all mediums, my essential goals remain the same
​​
-
To tell meaningful stories
-
To share beauty in all it's forms
-
And to use creativity as a way of exploring the deeper layers of this world
