About me

All blogs start somewhere.

Back in 2010, this blog was set up so I could maintain correspondence with my dear old mum. I had intended to post about my arts practice, philosophical wonderings and track life’s goings on. However, I’m now using it to share my thoughts on education and society.

FYI: since leaving the pastoral rolling knolls and huggable trees of Dartington’s College of the Arts, I’ve worked as a:

— Fine artist

— Graphic designer

— Field worker on an organic farm

— Video artist

— Researcher of Turkish geographic and religious history

— Proof-reader & Copy-editor

— Digital Artist

— Project manager for an independent Community Arts project

— Freelance photographer

— Welder

— Boat hand

— Researcher into the cultural identity of Aegina

— Performance artist and Actor

— ESL teacher

— Barman and Waiter

— Journalist

— Web designer

— Office clerk in Libya

— Failed children‘s story writer

— Model

— Promoter

— Phonics teacher

— Homeroom teacher

I don’t believe there is anything wrong with varied experience.
