*My creations have been called bizarre ,are far from perfect and in fact I step into the computer ,upon the wing of a bird and work with reckless abandon and no boundaries and view the camera as a magic box…..............
I call this process FUSIONartPHOTOGRAPHY because it is within my mind that I fuse these images together.

“I have been browsing through your work and am absolutely amazed. I admire your innovative and pragmatic approach to creative art with the application of your equally amazing photos. While you maintain a distinct niche, I found myself lost at times, as each piece is so uniquely eclectic and would leave me thinking is this the same artist?
Kevin Gerien
“Shanghaiwu, Fate and a few misteps brought me to your work in Saatchi Showdown. From Saatchi, I followed your trail to Redbubble. I was even more impressed. I’ve been looking at your work for the past two hours, and without exaggeration, I don’t think my life will ever be the same. I know for sure the next few days will be different.
Your collages tell interesting stories, as good and detailed as any Bob Dylan song. I’ll study them the way I listen to music, over and over, always hearing and seeing something new.
I’ve joined Redbubble, which I never would have known about if I hadn’t searched for a way to contact you. I just wanted to say- Thanks “

Shanghaiwu: “don’t take any of this too seriously” BUT REDBUBBLE has added a huge/ another dimension to my discovering more about myself / creativity and the impact of this new age of internet where one can immediately exhibit/it takes all the frustration out of creativity for me!It has made me realise the importance of the support through encouraging comments and consideration of others. It stimulates us all to reach that little further.These are only a few of the encouragement messages but just shows you what an amazing group of people are on REDBUBBLE.
