I've been an artist for as long as I can remember - sketching, painting, writing songs and lyrics, playing guitar in a band and, naturally, writing. I'm the owner of a Johannesburg based design studio, and have been in the industry for about 20 years. During this time I've done quite a bit of copy writing for clients, which is where I learned to guide the flow of words and, hopefully, cystalise concepts. My main inpulse as a writer, like most artists, is to touch my audience in some way, sometimes move them to higher realities they might not have noticed in the daily grind, or just plain give them a good time. You're only as valuable as you can serve others, and what a way this is to serve...
