My Favourite Five
Books
The Rolling Stones by Sebastian Krüger
Art reference books - I have built up a large collection over the years. They’re my rock and I’d be lost without them so I’d like to pick them, as a ‘library’ for my first choice. Grand Designs Handbook by Kevin McCloud - I’d love to find a plot of land with far reaching views over the sea and design a self-build one day. I love archi- tecture and creating beautiful spaces. I listen to audio books when painting through the night. Fry’s English Delight by Stephen Fry , and The Success Principles by Jack Canfield are both very inspirational. The Story of the Little Mole who knew it was none of his Business by Werner Holzwarth - This is the funniest children’s books I have ever read. It’s about amole whowakes up onemorning to find that one of the other animals has done his ‘business’ on his head, he then sets out on amission to find the culprit. I read this to the boys over and over again when they were little!
Artists
Dance Of Time by Salvador Dali
My favourite artists have always been the realists. I have such admiration and appreciation for the dedication it takes to create paintings that are true to life. Not just ‘photographic copies’ but realism with a twist.
