Introduction "Black Is Not A Colour" was the basis of an argument I had with a school mate many years ago (and won), and the statement has remained with me ever since. Black Is Not A Colour has evolved into an outlet for my creative endeavors, few and far between though those endeavors may be at times. I like to write as well as make things, in bursts and spurts here and there. I've started this blog both as a showcase/forum for such creative bits and bobs, and also to motivate myself to work on a more regular basis. I am still trying to figure out what I want to be when I grow up (whenever that may be), but in the mean time I'll call myself a craftist.. a craft making artist.
