My favorite medium is:
That has changed over the decades; at the moment the digital platform affords me to play with "layers" as moments taken "out of time."
The best place to create my work is:
In front of a high-powered iMac + the use of a great Nikon digital camera.
I am most inspired by:
My Love of Beauty in all its manifestations; as in the philosophical aesthetic study of "Shibui."

I'm currently working on:
I've formed a huge archive of the photos of my life's work. These are the images that I use to develop my VIDA Collection
I collect:
A collection of hand-cut "Katazome" Japanese screens. I also have a collection of Indonesian "Copper Tjaps" that I've used to make my wax-resistant textiles.
