About

I am a 40 something Londoner living in Brixton. A divorcee and father of Francesca (9 years old). After many years of working in bars, trying to be a pop star/chef/licensee/racing driver (not really), then waking up to a long process of rehabilitation for various abuses, I decided on art college. I have recently completed 6 years of study in Fine Art at Camberwell and have achieved a Bachelors and a Masters degree. My principal research was the psychology of aggression, this led me to train and compete as a boxer.
