About

It all started when…

… when
… to be honest, I don’t know how or when it started. I’m just glad that I found the inspiration to do something about it. I seem to have an insatiable curiosity. Always asking how or why.

A brief side note, I must give a tip of the hat to my family, who during my childhood were under a constant barrage of questions, in most cases barely able to finish answering one before the next question was queuing up for response. And in the instances where there was no-one to answer or an answer wasn’t forthcoming I would ponder the potential solutions to my quandaries… vocally.
Yes, I was one of those kids who’s internal monologue was on loud speaker.

This unquenchable thirst has left me with a very broad set of skills and a monstrous general knowledge. Fortunately, this has put me in a position to follow my true vocation… Creation.

I like to make things. All kinds of things. Conceptual, physical, digital, philosophical and everything in between.

I like to make things for myself, to sate my curiosity, test concepts or push boundaries.
I also like to make things for other people, especially when that means helping them bring their visions to life.

Solutions are my target and the joy that comes from them is my currency.
If it was possible, I’d be happy to “trade furs” for everything that I do.
Unfortunately money is a necessity in our world, but it isn’t a primary motivator for me.

I’m a hippy by nature and have a deep love for our natural world, because of this I strive to create with as small an impact on the environment as possible.
I love using old things to create new things, not only does it help with waste and aid in saving our world, but it gives once loved things the ability to be loved again, in a new way…
… Rebirth… New life… New love.

So for those of you that want to incorporate something old and maybe a little tired but has personal meaning or aesthetic value into something special that is relative to your current philosophy/world, then I’m someone that you need to get in touch with.

Alternatively, if you like my style and you have a creation in mind (or just want to own one of mine)… Then it’s time to get in touch with the Artful Raven.
