    Title says it all.

    I'm thinking of becoming a director. I was inspired by Hitchcock and Spielberg.

    I'm a painter/sculptor/print-maker(mostly copper-prints)/photographer/draughtsman and I dabble in 4d aka film. The two most influential artists on my work are Marcel Duchamp and Michelangelo da Carravaggio.

    The works that inspired me to become interested in those fields were primarily prints by Durer and paintings by Dali.
    The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are so certain of themselves, but wiser people are full of doubts.
