I am schematic with every step & choosy.

Naturally a universal lover, of great faith, humanitarian, selfless, has a higher perspective with an inner strength.

Introspective, prophetic, philosophical, soul searching & sometimes critical & opinionated,

You'll find me generous with a high moral sense, balanced, an intellect & practical with an appreciation of beauty in all forms.

Also independent & interested in general research, has a reservoir of inspired wisdom & knows what I want and why.

I have a spiritual identity & operates on that, bringing me to great heights.

Always looking for an opportunity to investigate the unknown, to use & show my mental abilities in finding the purpose & meaning of life.

Loves & enjoys the quiet to replenish my energy.

Tommie has creative abilities, some sensitivity, loyalty and brilliance, humility, an expansive viewpoint, compassionate, a visionary & a good partner.

My purpose is for the greatest good of all.

Brown is one favourite colour, it is luxuriant and reflects confidence, security & also a soothing colour that takes the edge off pressured lives.

Loves Green, colour of Will & Blues, colour of Mood ie. Love.

I enjoy arresting motion, moods & other forms of behaviour, attributable to life forms & holding them fixed with paint so that a hundred years later when it is looked at, it relives.

I clear my space for new beginnings, remember the good, forgive the bad & moves on.
