On the inside of my darken skull insects feed on my consciousness

A book of images made 1st before painting, I am entering the painting and the book.

I am an outer sider with images that are not your picture postcard norm. This work was created at my most fragile. The sketch book and painting I am entering is about the lose of my mother last year, the grief, the break down of my family life, missing my son, having to leave my job and home. I was living as a traveler for 5 months the book was produced in my darken van. I Use my drawing and paint to drive out the desire of sadness and depression. To relieve my emotions, and to not break down anymore. Art is to the atheist, is like religion to the believer. A little divinity in my conscious being. I am a self developed artist and have been making images since I was a teenager. Using sticks, spraycans, oil tubes and car paint. I work with the subconscious and internal sensations.

Your diaries show a diligence that you have in your nature to create art. You have a talent for putting down on paper some really good abstract ideas.

Hi Jez,

I really like your sketch books, they remind me of some of my ink blot work. Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful work. I love the colours, bright and vibrant! Please keep it coming! :) Kate
