ABOUT MYSELFI am currently living in West Wales and have been doing so since about eighteen years ago. I live a few miles away from the sea and close to The Presely Hills. Bluestone is found in The Presely's and many consider that this area is the source of the bluestones at Stonehenge. |

I live a relatively secluded life here though I have a certain amount of contact with Kindred Spirits. For the astrologically minded I have sun in taurus, a libran ascendant and moon in cancer and like having astrological discussions with fellow astrologers. I also do charts for friends occasionally and have done them professionally in the past. Currently I am focusing on my work with mandalas. I have been painting mandalas since the early '70's and it is an ongoing interest and means of livelihood. The last few years I have been traveling around a fair bit, partly to take my work to various places in the U.K. and abroad and also for the kind of social contact that is not readily available in such a remote part of the country as here. As most of you are probably aware Mandala Art is a meditative art form and I have had a long term interest in mystical philosophy, healing, sacred sites and related subjects. I would welcome any communications of this nature.
St David is the patron saint of Wales and the cathedral is in Pembrokeshire about thirty miles away. As you can see one of my interests is photography and I am in the process of developing a series of cards which makes use of my art work, photographs and computer technology. I have also been involved in the idea of making a Mandala Video but that project seems to be on hold at the moment. However any ideas on the subject and help in manifesting that particular vision would be appreciated.
I live alone in the country and meet up occasionally with friends. In my mid twenties I became the father of my daughter Devi who has always lived with her mother abroad, mainly in Holland. Devi is currently living in Amsterdam. Otherwise my family connections are somewhat tenuous as both my parents have moved on from this dimension, and I don't see much of my brother or other relatives. Here in Wales for many years there has been an extensive network of people pursuing "alternative" lifestyles and there are many artists, craftsmen and women, healers, a few astrologers, organic gardeners, a Steiner school and so on. We are a loose knit community. The indigenous Welsh population who have been here for centuries and been gradually infiltrated by other nationalities especially the English preserve a certain independence from this wave of "incomers" and I am not particularly well integrated into the mainstream local community. However everyone is friendly and I do have a few welsh speaking friends who were born and brought up here. My mother's side of the family is Welsh but I was born in Malta and brought up in Southern England. Some further background information about my journey can be found in
I look forward to hearing from you.
