I also got encouragement from my teachers at primary school but one person in particular who had a significant impact on my lean towards art is Mr. Luigi St. Omer. Mr. St. Omer was the one who always reminded me that I should not settle for less than greatness in my art. He saw that I had the potential and he helped me develop that talent.

It's sad that some people still believe that artists die poor. This is not the case in this day and age.

Musically, some of the acts that I've really been identifying with are: Fleetwood Mac, Roxy Music, Vangelis, Jean-Michel Jarre, Earth, Wind & Fire, in general music that seems to have a lot of romance to it and a certain glamorous idealism.

I believe that people have to be sensitized more about the many jobs an individual can branch out to after studying an art form.

I think it's important to just be in your subconscious mind - at least when you're starting an idea.

I was constantly drawing and colouring. I had an immense love for art and anything which involved art fascinated me.

None of my songs are written 'about' someone or something, they all just sort of tumble out unannounced, like the worst kind of house guest.
