My major influences and my curent influences are pretty much one and the same thing; not changing but constantly evolving with the help of friends, family and experiences. For earliest influences see 'Major Influences'.

Life: A collection of friends found along the way who inspire me by their painting, sculpting, poetry, music making and humour.

Music- from Dylan to Mahler to La Bottine Souriante, live music & festivals.

Reading- Balsac, Zola, Dickens, Kerouac, Douglas Adams - anything with a lateral and fresh view of life.
