TOOLS OF THE TRADE
> what tools and materials changed your life? <


When I arrived in Holland, I felt free to realize my long-standing desire to paint with hammer and nails, with a saw, screwdriver and chisel. I immediately set to work and to this day I work with discarded wood, a material that has changed my life. I like the fact that the whole picture is not under my control, and that it was actually painted by someone else. That is how the society gets involved in the work, besides me. This gives me the impression (or maybe just a hope) that my work is more objective.

Hi dear Ron,
great idea! I am enjoying these days in artists shoes and music.
It is always hard to pick 10, but it’s bittersweet task.
I discovered this summer blues guitarist Junior Kimbrough
Try to find – You Better Run: The Essential Junior Kimbrough (2002)
in a meantime look at the documentary:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jSRdQgidCHY

Lately listening a lot radio Belgrade 2 in my studio (since I can’t catch any other normal station there) and they are playing a lot of classical music. I discovered some great stuff. Here are few Serbian/Croatian bands too.
I hope we will all enjoy each others lists in 2016/17.
Fancy shoes for studio work!
O, yeah, mine is Converse – in my service since 2002 :-)
Keep in touch!
