At 82 I look back on my life - what has been what came out of it - both mistakes AND triumphs! Much of it from out of my Dreaming's - and NOW - I wouldn't change ANY OF IT.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
I am an Oldie who's had lots of fun and adventure, (as well as pain), a loving family, many friends and mentors along the way. I have travelled in Oz and O/Seas, been part of the Music and Art world, spent many years restoring Old Australiana, and with my son (and sometimes my daughter) driven on every numbered road in Tasmania plus much of Oz, camping, surfing, adventuring, and Drinking Coffee, tasting everything there is to eat, and of course … Doing Art (and Talking Too Much!), and wearing the linoleum off a thousand galleries!
I don’t understand Surrealism, but somehow seem to do it without trying – my 2023 finalist entry, “Firebull”, was just created out of my heart to illustrate my passion for the Environment – and THEN a friend labelled it to me! The photographs I have used for this entry are all camera mistakes, but each one representing my dimly seen DREAMS, and LOVE of friends, family, art and (as 1/4 cast SIOUX) my Native American and Environmental yearnings.
