From a place inside...who I am come to think of it.
Who we all are.
The same theme running through all of us.
An incorporation of music: acoustic guitar the inner sanctum, the inner realm.
Happy.
I feel all is good in this realm.
Ideas running around my head, they come from within, intuitively,
spontaneously, put down fast on paper.
Feelings from colour, feelings form playing my acoustic guitar.
Connection between caricature and real life.
Travel to different areas of the world, looking at faces as
though they are all the same.
Kracked heads!
Every picture I do I see the same image-style-way-feelings of the one drawing I did when I was 8 years old...it's a car waiting at traffic lights, the same line of
structure seems to be running through my work.
The surf art.
Love of the female body.
Painting in an abstracted way.
Love of the buxom female body: curvy female fascination.
Love of the cartoon: infatuation with Bugs Bunny and Warner Bros characters.
Very lucid memory of the characters I used to spend hours in my room drawing as a child, just drawing all the cartoon characters,
just cartoons...
Appreciation of nature.
Travel with Dad to paint on site.
Travel to different areas of the word to surf and paint.

Love of aboriginal culture.
Get a strange feeling of belonging when I'm in the bush, instilled within me as a child from all the places I traveledto with mum and dad.
Portraiture aboriginal: seems to come alive as I paint/pastel/charcoal.
It comes alive.
Line, tone, colour.
