DESCRIBE YOUR ULTIMATE ART<br />

CREATION SETUP...<br />

4.<br />

WHAT’S YOUR MOST<br />

MEMORABLE SURFING MOMENT?<br />

2.<br />

3.<br />

It would be my current studio with<br />

an art shop stock of materials<br />

within - but most importantly - a<br />

head full of inspired ideas waiting<br />

to energetically be brought to<br />

canvas.<br />

WHAT’S YOUR GREATEST<br />

MOTIVATION WHEN IT COMES<br />

TO CREATING ART?<br />

Capturing and creating an image<br />

of the seen world that is filtered<br />

and shaped by an internal ideal<br />

of beauty, harmony, energy and<br />

balance, to create a work that<br />

resonates, in this way, with myself<br />

and hopefully others.<br />

YOUR MOST MEMORABLE ART<br />

CAREER MOMENT?<br />

5.<br />

A moment of total synchronicity<br />

- when I had just dried off from a<br />

memorable point break session<br />

and was relaxing in the sunshine<br />

in the car, virtually parked on<br />

the beach watching amazing<br />

waves and rides go down with<br />

Eric Clapton’s Layla (long version)<br />

playing full bore.<br />

IF YOU COULD HAVE LUNCH<br />

WITH ONE ARTIST IN THE<br />

WORLD, WHO WOULD IT BE<br />

AND WHY?<br />

Lucian Freud - unfortunately now<br />

passed - I would have begged him<br />

to let me watch him paint for a<br />

day. His ability to paint the human<br />

body inspires me - an astounding<br />

painter and image maker.<br />

The initial realisation that I could<br />

indulge my passion full time and<br />

not have to think about ‘another’<br />

job to support myself and my<br />

family.<br />
