About Me



These are a few of my paintings, they are acrylic and plaster on board and are mostly around 3' by 2' or thereabouts. They are highly textured, which is not really visible on the slides.
Been writing songs since I was a wide eyed youngster, guitar and voice are still my weapons of choice. Have tampered with electronica www.myspace.com/robertmaelstrom and experimental groups but the old songwriter thing just keeps coming back no matter how much I try to get a 'real' job. You are currently listening to the sound of my beloved Martin JC1e that I've had since 1999.
See www.lessismore.co.uk for loads of free demos and archive tunes.
Currently living with my lovely missus Rio and our wee laddie Hugh up in the glens. Juggling responsible parenthood with being a creative maverick...er...not easy... lend me a tenner 'till the end of week would ya...
