| Introduction | Fame is the infirmity of noble minds. |
| Interests | Simply love the outdoors. Have travelled to virtually all the places that fascinate me. However, time and time again I find myself drawn to discover new facets of art, architecture and human nature at The French Riviera, Venice, Naples, Verona, Florence, Rome, Milan, Vienna, Prague and Budapest. Visit the theatre often for plays or films. Into fine art nudes since I paint them. Quite adore any form of art. An ardent fan of fashion, find the way it changes shape, form and texture each season rather irresistible. Can live my life admiring and studying architecture. Have just about begun playing with photography and interior design and it is quite addictive. Being a published writer, more books are on the way and therefore I am on a healthy diet of literature, poetry, non-fiction and psychology. Also fond of psychiatry: evolutionary and social. |
