In another time - I studied Fine Arts / photography.

I was never a good enough draughtsman -

to my dissatisfaction, I always had to struggle with drawing & painting.

I was much happier with my camera & using a pair of scissors & far more enjoyed the fruits of my efforts with printmaking & collage / assemblage.

In another time - I studied Art history

& enjoyed artists who deployed Chiaroscuro, such as Caravaggio & Rembrandt.

Gauging the reflectance value of averagely patinated galvanized objects.

anyways ... I asked my mate David Bowie if he had noticed any differences in my recent work

& he simply said "ch .. ch .. ch .. changes"
