Interests and Personality

BiographyI retired from the corporate IT world in 2005 and spend what free time I have perfecting my drawing technique. I studied art briefly at school (not as a major subject) and took water colour technique at night school. Apart from that I rely of practise and comments. My challange is to instill life into a face.
InterestsApart from painting and drawing I like listening to music, travel and look at other peoples art works.
MusicRecently getting into some forms of Jazz but always revert to 12 bar blues.
FilmsNot much of a film buff. Don't really have a favourite but like the modern renditions of Shakespear.
TelevisionCan't stand all these celebrity and 'voting' shows. Can't think of anything that I could recommend.
BooksI like to read crime thrillers but spent a lot of time after school reading the modern classics (War and Peace, Cancer Ward, A Brief History of Time (didn't understand it) and Zen and the Art of Motorcycle maintenance for example).
HeroesDon't believe in it. Many people are influences but I don't worship anyone.
