Profile Pic...

There have been a few enquiries regarding my profile pic... It was painted for me by a good friend Ralph Koegel whilst I was on a sojourn in India. In it, he depicts me in the shape of Shiva. The spirit of the concept is that of 'God is in Man, and Man is in God'. It is honestly one of the nicest gifts I have ever received from anyone...

Ralph's work is highly influenced by his connection to 'The All That Is', and many of his pictures deptict his models embedded into a broader landscape. There is something intimate about Ralph's art, at the same time as being timelessly universal in their appeal.

This post is a big thank you to Ralph for his refreshing outlook on life, his wit and friendship, and his ability to take the broadest of spiritual concepts back to the quantum level... where life and the Absolute seem to continually confirm themselves in an endless dance of the divine Mandelbrot and open source chaotic harmonies...
