John Hodgson's Friends

If you're an artist, what kind of art do you make?: Digital, Painting, Photography

I am...: Different things to different people, a photographer, a fine artist, a digital artist, a website and graphics designer. However, behind the masks, I am just me!

About my artwork: The early part of my life was spent behind the camera. Photography has always fascinated me on many levels, from traditionall portrait to darkroom modified prints. Unfortunately, a fire in 2005 destroyed to bulk of my work. However, I am now once again behind the lens.

In 1996, after an accident, I took an interest in computing resulting in a new direction. I began with desktop publishing and website design, then in 2000 I was accepted into Newcastle College of art and began training in Computer Aided Art and design, Video editing and 3D Animation.

I continued working with digital art until February 2007 when I began painting for the first time. Initially in acrylics, however, I soon found oil’s; at which point I moved away from the acrylic completely. My goal is to continue developing my skills, techniques and style.

Artists I like: My good friend dzaet, www.dzaet.com
Swanbones, Tina Imel, Arabella, Lori Earley, Colette Calascione, Gustave Moreau,

Interests: Where do I begin? Art, music, cars, animals, old movies, and much more

I'm thinking to promote a performance focusing on the recording.
It is a challenge to create how to do that, but I'll do that.
I'm really liking this way to work. I'm not intended to do something new neither similar other works. I'm doing it on a way that makes sense to me now, with my body , his thinkings and his urgences. Thank you for the comment and nice plesure to meet you.
I have a link for a film. A man had recorded the final 5 minutes of my performance 'Salão de Dança' (Dance Saloon), played on september, 18th, at IMECC (Mathematical, Estatistics and Cientific Computation Institute). He had a camera and didi that.
