Father of 3 children ;oldest son 24 Marc Wilkins is wellknown international Film Director,second oldest 22 Luke Wilkins is an up and coming film star,Poet and Musician ,my Partner over the last 16 years is German born Cordula Ehms Artist,Stylist,Coach/Trainer and my most critical criticer and the sunshine of my Life

I have written,sung and written the lyrics for 6 CD´s
I have written two books "The girl with nine toes" also available in German.
"EMOTIO" only available in German.
My Paintings and Music are strongly influenced by my work as a Therapist,teaching People to be self responsible,self relient and to believe in themselves.I think this is why the upmost aim of my creations are to move people emotionally,by painting "Faces of Life" i am pondering the very source of human feelings,Love,Belief,Spirituality and Hope.Another strong influence are my friends the Australian Aborigines who taught me that we all come from the same Beginning and that descriminating skin colour,creed,culture or religion has absolutely nothing to do with relationships,Friends or spreading Peace and is most probably the most viscious weapon known to Mankind.
If somebody asked me what the true meaning of my Art is ,i think i would say "live your Life,Live your Love"

I work mainly in Acrylics using Pigments,Sand and crushed shells to give Texture and depth,I worked for 15 years in nothing but Oils until I had to admit that using this media I could not Paint fast enough to create the paintings in my head.
