thanks - that was an early piece in response to the works of Ernst Fuchs, but frankly, it has always been in me, just the Viennese School provided a philosophical home for me....
Thanks for dropping in

The tatoos on his face remind me of Maori carvings, is that what it was based on?

Not consciously, but yeah, now that you mention it, there is something very 'tribal' about it! I just can't leave blank surfaces alone, and the spiralling designs are really universal in nature, ingrained in our subconscious as part of the inner self....
