ABOUT ME
I'm an English nomadic artist currently living nomadic, but I spend most of my time in a village in southern China. I tend to travel every few months on a shoe string budget, busking and painting to make my way. When I settle I paint, draw and make crafts for a living. I enjoy psych-rock, esoteric books and science fiction films.

An amateur ethnologist, I enjoy visiting indigenous tribes, living with them and learning from them; taking meticulous notes from their textile patterns , tattoo markings and sacred symbols. Whether drinking mint tea in the Sahara desert, milking cows with nomads in Mongolia, being tattooed by a dying tribe in the Philippines, learning bare blade wood carving in Bali, sleeping with cannibal yogis in India, drinking psychedelic cactus juice in Peru, climbing active volcanoes in Indonesia, dodging missiles in Palestine or train hopping in the alps I relishes the process of drawing inspiration from the world.

PHILOSOPHY

KrishnaMuti

Think about the cosmos on a daily basis, and position yourself in relative to the radical stuff happening right now in the nebular, right now a star is going supernova, that's more beautiful than anything we have ever created in art, more complex than anything humans have ever engineered

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Ive been a guest on many sofas, floors squats and surfaces in houses across the galaxy.

Interests

The only people that interest me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars.

Teach, Learn, Share

'When an artist wants to show you their art, or a writer wants you to read what theyve written, its quite often an expression of trust.
Because a poem or a story or a painting are often things that come from the heart. Little pieces of the artists themselves and if theyre willing to share it with you, you should appreciate it'
