Welcome to my blog index
Here you will find snippets from my most recent blog posts. Dedicated to all lovers of my style of convergent media art, and especially to my collectors, my blog is intended as a forum to let you get to know me better. I shall be sharing some of the stories behind my art, and giving you some insights into “what makes me tick.” I also hope to share helpful tips on choosing and displaying art… plus anything else that I think you might find interesting.
It’s important to me to get to know my audience, so please leave a comment and start the conversation! I’d love it if you would share my blog posts with any friends or family you think would enjoy them, and if you like my work, consider joining the Collectors’ Club to keep up to date with my work and to benefit from special offers and promotional codes.

A personal journey with Parkinson’s
