Aura painting at Stokesley
It is with great pleasure to announce a return to painting aura portraits live! First event of the season is part of the Stokesley Spiritual Development Circle Group organised by the wonderful Ray Bokor.
Ray and I met so many years ago both trading at a number of events in the Goth circuit and always wanted to start a collaboration and organise something together. Ray is currently hosting a very successful series of events and I was absolutely touched when he invited me to take part in one of them.
On occasion I will be selling prints as well as doing aura painting (pre booking only). More information on the event to follow but all the details are on the poster.
Collaboration with Gothzilla
Finally able to go back to my blog with a copious amount of updates after what feels an excruciatingly long hiatus! Following a bad fall on my bike with the result of a broken elbow to mend, then what can only be described as the ‘infamous’ Covid 19 with forced isolation lock down and all related ordeal we are all even too familiar with, then the habit of not updating the blog despite being quite proactive anyway.
First update of the season has to go to the joint collaboration with the mighty Gothzilla, a very well known and loved band in the UK Goth scene. For an artist, there is hardly any bigger honour than being asked to produce the illustration for a band's album cover. In my case, in addition to being able to create something for a band I truly respect and admire, I also had the privilege of seeing their album titled 'Auras'.The artwork created for the album cover

Aura Painting: The Black Sun (The mechanical clock)
When I started doing aura painting I thought the aura reading component was only a media for me to perceive a person and subsequently produce aesthetically pleasing art pieces. Over the years, I have come to the realisation that this component is instead key in my work and is not only a simple transition phase where I get inspiration from. For this reason, each painting is crafted as a self-discovery and somehow what I interpret as a journey to help people taking a step in a world that not many can (fully) perceive.
Since the sale of the painting did not go through, the original piece is currently on sale. Please get in touch if you like to purchase the piece. I will also shortly produce and start to sell prints hand-embellished in acrylics.

Aura Painting at Tomorrow's Ghosts Festival, October 2018
This time the venue for the festival and our market was the wonderful Whitby Pavilion and one of my favourite bands of all time, Paradise Lost was also present as one of the two festival headliners. I have been following this Yorkshire band for most of my music life and listening to Doom Metal currently is and has always been the biggest inspiration for my painting. For this reason, just to be part of the same festival I can say it was simply a dream came true!!! Even more I managed to get both set list and drumstick (as well as a band tee) so, it was overall one of the best festival ever!!
