About Me

l'art est inutile, vont à la maison. Welcome to my Myspace page. I am a photographic artist living and working in Wales. People tell me I wear my eyeliner too heavy and that I'm always pouting- making me look conceited and arrogant. This is, on the whole, true. I'm not the most sociable of people but I'm working on it. I'm from a small l village called Old Colwyn on the North Wales coast- but have been living in South Wales for the past six years.I love thunder storms and suffer from seasonal affective disorder in the summer- I could quite happily live in a world of perpetual drizzel and inky skies. Light is so very much overrated in my opinion.
