Old stuff - a doodle of some apples in a basket.

okay, it's hardly special is it? but this basket of apples inspired me to think of art on a completely different level to what I had ever considered before, in a more philisophical way.

If you get a chance, look up the meaning to 'Guy Debord' (handy google link) and read his writings on Derive. This may or not be relevant, but it is to me. I now consider every waking moment as an influence to what I create, but there are concentrated times, when surroundings encompass everything.

It's hard to explain in a nutshell, and perhaps I'll try to eleborate on this feeling soon, but from a trip to an orchard at the very end of the season of 2004, and a sketch of a basket of apples, via a rather interesting lecturer, to an appreciation of vision I find hard to explain.

Spend a little more time absorbing, rather than looking, spend a bit more time seeing.

Lunacy is reborn. time to make time.

Ok. So I feel internally bad about not being on the web for quite some time, so I've created this blog to TRY to maintain some digital sanity, to give me an excuse to make some more digital stuff, and to keep up to date with news, gossip, beer and art.

I'm an artist, so it's all about showing off. I'm a variety bucket, ecclectic, so although I am showing off my stuff and humour on here, I'm a shy retiring person.

So I'm Dean Perry, aka pickledpizza, DarkRed or Pickle, my wife is Summer Perry, and I'll refer to my daughter as littlun, or icklepickle.
