A Beginner's Guide to Me

Hi All!

<< That's me, looking kind of crazy in front of Tom duBois' Soul Fly at his current exhibition Visions of Enlightenment at the Muir Fine Art Gallery.  A cool piece, and a cool guy, just FYU.

I may not be an experienced blogger (yet), but I have the kind of obsession with the visual arts that makes my significant other sidle away from me at museum exhibitions, as I descend into full geek-mode. Seeing my favorite artists at a museum is what i would imagine music fanatics experience seeing their favorite musicians in concert.. lame, maybe, but i've always found having a interest in something gives meaning back to life that apathy all too often sucks out of it. 

Anyway, a little about me... I moved to this lovely city of Houston in January 2015. I am originally from England, have travelled all over Europe, and lived in Venice and New Orleans, two of the most art-filled and unique cities in the world. So, I have to say the move to H-Town made me nervous... it has such a bad wrap doesn't it?? I live for all things quirky, beautiful, and original, and never imagined I would find it here in this concrete jungle of skyscrapers and desolate commuters.... Was I wrong?  Yes, actually.

Follow my blog and I will show you all the incredible nooks and undiscovered gems of this diamond in the furiously polished not-so-rough as i discover them. Watch this space Y'ALL!
