# About me
Ever since I could hold a pencil, I loved drawing and painting. The more I drew, the more encouragement I had, so after many passing years, here I am. There was a time when I experienced a little hiccup in my journey and so art was cast aside, being blamed conveniently for any woes that came my way. Presently however, I just love to dabble in art whenever the opportunity arises. I can never predict the outcomet but I always hope for the best and sometimes is pleasanly rewarded with enormous feelings of elation.The mediterranean climate in Adelaide, South Australia is very conducive to all sorts of outdoor pursuits. The landscapes here are very spectacularly unique. Not necessarily perfect either just for the sake of perfection but inspirational and spell bound. Nevertheless imperfection is adequate as a beauty in itself.
My subjects are always around me, constantly evolving. I live in a 100 year old Victorian house at the edge of the parklands which surround the city centre. The city in turn, is surrounded by the hills on two sides and the sea on a third side. As such, my work includes my surroundings in all its' glory.
Currently, there is a strong desire for me is to quench my thirst to create beautiful yet quirky surreal paintings electronically using corel paint and paint shop pro with a key signature style of my own. That would be both exhilarating and invigorating.
I hope to pursue this journey of self improvement, be inspirational and be inspired in my quest.

Why not? People learn Russian, Persian, Latvian etc. For a while I did used it at work but not anymore because nowadays it is not very popular. Relationships between the countries are strained.

Thank you kindly for your comments. Your gallery is magnificent. I found it by chance when I read someone's message thanking you and he implied that you are very good. Of course I was curious. You also added ha, ha and I too have a good sense of humor except that in DA I cannot read tone of voice, facial expression, body language, choice of words etc.

You are welcome. I love DA because I have an audience. I get instantaneous gratification. Even if I do not it is like setting up an album or journal of my art. I also have improved tremendously, from being a landscape painter I now liked portraits. Good luck and enjoy.

I am on cloud nine with all these badges from talented artists. So talented with all wonderful creativity and patience. Unfortunately I am technologically inept and I may risk deleting everything including my art. ( I am guilty of that). Once at work I deleted someone's files and ended up promising the moon and the stars to the technician.
