IPH

This isn’t here solely out of egotism. I’ve had a website for over a decade already (since 1996 or so) and it’s here because people may like to know, if they are interested in my paintings or my writings.

I am now, by occupation, an artist, but I was formerly an IT professional — until a slump meant I had effectively retired — and I have been making abstract paintings since 2003.

I lived alone most of my life, though I was married for a while in the 1990s.

I have a wide range of interests and hobbies, almost all of which are things one does on one’s own (well, I do anyway) although some of them need an audience. (An example of that last point is creating and maintaining this website: it has little purpose unless somebody out there is going to read it some day.)
