| "I
view life optimistically as a series of adventures into the unknown,
to be observed, contemplated and reflected upon. I am happiest when
working or travelling, catching the humour of life.
I
derive great pleasure from my materials (oils, pastels, wood, stone,
silver) as I contemplate humanity and its place in the Universe.
My
ultimate ambition is to extend the synthesis of thought, action
and spirit to all aspects of my life and work"
