Art has always been one of my keen interests, especially if it compliments some kind of music. My childhood was bound with painting, learning musical instruments and experimenting with craft and that is how I spent a vast majority of my time. However though, only recently have I indulged myself into the field of tattooing and graphic designs.

Cameron Gray has been one of my most influential designers of all time and it is my dream to get a tattoo designed by him. His work has been acknowledged all over the world through his album artwork designs for bands like Born Of Osiris and Dead Letter Circus. What I like the most about his work is the intricacy of the designs he makes. The very small details through out his pieces of work are impeccable and worthy of analysis.

About a year ago I had the privilege of meeting one of the art critics that wrote a column in the Australia Art Collector magazine about Gray's graphic designs and it was through him that I learned of Gray's amazing artistic talent. One example of his designs would be the background of this page and not too long ago it was chosen to be one of his best yet because of its depth in meaning. "I believe in the existence of a spiritual power that runs the universe instead of a straight up God that I would worship and hope for him to support my life, just that idea and my own thoughts and experiences are what my art is" was written by Gray on his website: parablevisions.com.
