Many of my students learn different techniques online and I have learnt a lot using this medium. Art is picking up in the Caribbean but it's unfortunate that we still have people looking down on it. Many persons who don't know better think that having a career in art is a waste of time. I guess the public just needs to be educated some more.

Of course I had the parallel of having the early years of my life being spent during apartheid, and then having a lot of awful poverty going on around me while I lived in this bubble of middle-classness, but I was a child, and I only really started to (I hope) understand all of that fairly recently.

I was also always interested in the aesthetic realm - architecture and that kind of stuff - but music was my first love.

The moment you're too apologetic about something and people know that something isn't finished, they listen/look for the mistakes or cracks, but if you act like it's done people experience things in a totally different way.

I decided to create a really good laptop recording situation and to learn how to write that way, rather than have the perfect stuff around.

As a visual arts teacher, I have to keep my mind open. I have explores styles from pointillism to cubism.

Apart from the traditional paintings I also dabble with a little photography.
