Being passionate about what you do can lead to ‘burning the midnight oil’ so quality down time is
essential. A keen oneirologist and interpreter of dreams – due to that fact I have so many! An added bonus they can be very inspiring. Like many who work in this industry, I love exciting, energetic and dramatic film – horror, sci-fi genres are favourites but anything that is comic book, mythical or supernatural related gets my attention. This goes in hand with a passion for design, drawing and sculpture – which has led to continually growing collection of film and book related sculptures and collectibles. Not forgetting most animated movies and my collection of associated Art books – on concept, process and production. I have also managed to develop an avid interest on inspiring natural phenomena from micro cellular worlds to the furthest reaches of space and like to combine these studies and findings with creational aspects of work. Despite also being a keen gamer - owning most past and current day consoles and a broad spectrum of games - I do actually get out on my mountain bike and down to the gym. REFERENCES |
