In His Own Words
About him
Where to start...well, I'm very tall...the sort of very tall that scares children, and attracts low flying aircraft.
So, as well as the height (a lifelong skill, I’ve even been congratulated by complete strangers…not sure if they were allowed out just for the day, but still, I’ll take it). I enjoy (listed in no particular order, and not restricted to)…illustration, fantasy novels, industrial design, history, road trips, Columbo, writing, wistful memories of the 80s, and old British comedy shows.
I have an interesting career, although at times I step away to fulfil creative ambitions. I enjoy meeting new people, I’m easy going, and can make common ground with anyone (well, almost anyone). So my laid back nature means I’m not an adrenaline junkie (jumping out of perfectly good, serviceable aircraft with a bit of silk attached to your back has always struck me as a little odd). I can usually be found with a sketchbook as my creativity is the core of who I am.
A sizable contingent of demons insist on following me around, and the siren call of wanting to clean the slate and complete all of my unrealised creative dreams is ever-present. My life isn’t a path that is commonly trod. I don’t mean to be overly enigmatic, but that means I’ve never had my own family, although I’m more than capable of deeply meaningful long term relationships…something I’m indeed intent on rediscovering once more.
So, to finish off, I’m 6’8”, passionate, creative, and swear a bit too much.
