oh and keeping my tempremental ole harley running

last but not least ....... reading and replying on this fine internet forum
 
Programming, Electronics, Maths, Shooting (clay), Woodwork, Walking and of course Socialising. Oh, forgot, "playing" on the stock market.

Aurum.
 
Cycling - do up to 150km a week. which is about 3-4 hours. usually a 2.5 hour ride sat morning with a group. Ride most of the rides around Brissie (Mt Coot-tha Challenge, Brissie to Gold Coast, Brissie to Bay) Plus I maintain some friend's bikes. Learnt to do thorough services when young - true wheels, bottom brackets, derailleur set up, etc.

Reading- mainly macro economic and finance stuff about the USA and Australia. (am having a holiday at the moment so am up reading and skyping with US friends.)

20mx7m Vege patch- I eat a lot of asian and grow chinese greens, cherry toms, carrots, kafir lime tree, ginger, snow peas, capsicum, passionfruit, rocket, lettuce.....trade it with neighbours or take to work what we can't eat. messed around with hydroponic spinach years ago and want to do it again, but requires daily checks.

Writing - I have a book underway. should be out for Chrissy. health related stuff.
 
I'm shocked to see someone on here shares my hobby of Pyrotechnics.
I've been into it since I was 12 (24 now) have a license now and work for a large company here in Melbourne.

I also play in a band, love recording/mixing music and all outdoor activities :)
 
just came across an old painting I did of Bonecrusher winning the 1986 Cox Plate....it was in a box...not opened since I moved from the country to the city.....
its not finished...so thats next on the list....then I may put it on the market...also have a fabulous drawing of Vo Rogue....that arrogant head captured beautifully
hmmm so much to do so little time....actually I was looking for a painting I did of Sunline...
oh and memo to self...next time I move....I take the valuable boxes myself....amazing how the really good stuff goes missing...since all the boxes usually look the same

Kincella, i would really like to see some of your work. Is there anything available online? Or can you email me?
I work in the horse racing industry
 
nothing on line...that I am aware of...I have never put anything up on the net...I have only done a small amount...less than 20...did some on commission for horse owners...the others are all here.....
I paint along the lines of Stubbs...tell people I know I am the best horse artist they will ever meet...since Stubbs is deceased
I may email you something....I just dont want it out there on the net for some reason...others to use or copy
cheers
 
If you wouldn't mind emailing me something, it would be greatly appreciated.

Are you keen to do more paintings?
 
uhm...keen to do more...however its very time consuming...for the oil paintings...have not attempted water colours for the horses (may do so in the future)....drawings are quicker
takes me roughly 3-4 months to do an oil painting....in my spare time
currently very busy with work...but there is always the option...if someone wants something done...
thought I may take it up full time when I retire from work...have some exhibitions etc
when I moved to Melb 20 years ago..spent the first year at all the big meetings..taking photos of all the big name horses...so have thousands of photos....but lost track of who the horses were....although I could trace them if they were saddled or had a jockey on board... have heaps of just action shots, or the horses heads...capture their personality,,,fascinated with their colours,
am probably also interested in printing a book of my collection of photos
would you please send me PM....I am rather cautious about having my art out there on the net...at this stage anyway
cheers
 
Going out bush. Amazing what you can see there.

Gordon I have similar snaps...one is remarkable....with wild oats glowing in the front of the snap at ground level ...where the sun is lower in the sky, and the suns rays capture the oats
 
here is a photo of my dog.....but I had to crop it so much to fit it into the AFS requirements...just left with her face....its obvious I will have to spend more time fiddling with my photos if I want to put them up here as per the originals
