Dear Sarah,
Such a splendid idea. I would very much like to submit my sketchbooks. A bit of my work may be
seen at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/venantius.
This July I am looking forward to attending Art in Action as a demonstrator in the Drawing tent
(curator Damian Fenell). http://www.artinaction.org.uk/event_demonstrator-details.asp?
ref=5&artref=59
I would also like to add that I am currently developing works with some jeweller friends. Some are
realted to a scrip called Siddham (or Bonji)-used in Shingon Buddhism. There is a high probablity
that a few of these will be produced in gold or other metals sometime early next year. In the true
sense, I would not consider it jewellery but small sculpture that could perhaps be worn.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Venantius J Pinto
