About me (im not really made of solid gold, but there was a problem with writing this in the 'about me' section)

Hello! And welcome to my new and improved blog. My name is Andrew Mark Dranfield, I got my middle name from my uncle, but I have no idea where Dranfield originates from. My theory is that my forefathers used to put drains in fields, which would make sense, but I choose not to believe that because it’s not the most glamorous of titles to bear. This last year has been a difficult one for me, I believe I have changed as a person much because of the information I have subjected myself to, although nothing I learn will make any difference to myself or anyone else unless I get off my small perfectly round ass and do something about it. If you're still reading (which you're probably not, yet have to be to actually have just read that) ill try to explain why I like the things I do. Art is a major influence in my life, fine Art, Graphic Design, Illustration, music, everything that helps to communicate self-expression. It is one of the few tools we have left to change the reality we live in (although in a very controlled state). I don't have delusions about changing the world, the world changes with everything we do, yet I do believe the world needs to change. If you do care, and you don't live in fear, feel free to check out my up-loads and links to movies, seminars, etc to find out what it is I’m actually rambling on about.

Anyway thanks for reading this (if you actually did, and didn't just skip to the end) welcome to my new and improved blog, sit down, browse, have a brew and a caramel shortbread, or a digestive biscuit and open you're mind to the world of infinite possibilities. Thanks x

oh shit

Here we go again with the sodding blogs. 

Last year I struggled to keep my blog up to date, mainly because i'm quite shit with organization but I also hate keeping a diary, which is basically what a blog is, right? 

But I suppose it is a good way to show somebody theoretically half-way around the world, what I am interested in, and more generally what people are interested in (or not) so its not a bad thing. Basically blogs are cool, but I don't particularly like them very much, blah blah blah... 

 

So here we go again, blogging it up too the masses

peace x
