Welcome

Hello welcome to my artist web site, my current series is called the Dream carriers. I have devoted much time and effort on my current series, which focuses on the Barramundi concepts of life and spirituality. The Barramundi, native to Australia, is believed to be one of the last practicing aboriginal tribes to have resisted total conformation to the modern world. Central to their spirituality is the belief that every living thing has an afterlife and will continue onward in a postmortem dream world. To the Barramundi, the act of hunting is only for necessity, and every animal killed is ushered into the spirit world with the assistance of aboriginal artisans. These artists draw basic geometric outlines of the particular animal species, and fill them with line markings to represent each creature slain, so as to ensure their passage into the afterlife.

The first phase of my series began with focus on the butterfly image, as the Barramundi regard them to be the most sacred of all creatures, the vehicle that carries the soul to the dream world. After having explored the various facets of the insect's form, I then moved onto refining my technique, the fruits of which appear on my website to date.

Thanks for visting and injoy the art
