In His Own Words
About him
Hi! I'm Mark.
When coerced my friends describe me as: a renaissance man; blessed with a wit spanning the full spectrum of comedy from Swiftian satire to lovable clowning; loving, gentle, kind; self-sacrificing to the point of sainthood; hopelessly addicted to semi-colons.
I hope that people know me as someone who strives to be good and is passionate about the people and causes he holds dear.
Apart from art and photography I love music - Chopin, Debussy, and Nick Drake are lifelong favourites. I play the piano, and am studying music theory and composition.
I love reading, writing, drawing and painting. I studied Medieval Literature, Language and History at university...vocational huh? I love Folk Tales and Folklore...and love to visit chilled historic places like Glastonbury.
I love travel, the outdoors and fitness. As a photographer I get excited by dramatic landscapes and seascapes, but the simple joys are what stay with me - clouds scudding across the moon or curlews calling. I'm self-sufficient but everything is better with someone special...
Until I can take less hideous profile pictures please forgive me for including a physical description...I'm trying to right the wrongs of my photographic failure!!!
I am 6'1" tall, weigh 107Kg and have an athletic build. I have been assured that I am dishy, but I'm yet to be fully convinced!! I think that we all have an inner gawky teenager don't we?
I have a soft, deep voice- a bit BBC- but in moments of high excitement I fall into my native Suffolk! Think sexy pirate...everyone likes pirates!
I usually have dark brown curly hair, but it has a tendency to go off for a wander. During these periods of sub-optimal hairiness, I shave my head and get a tan. Others can vouch for the shapeliness of my cranium! Think young Yul Brynner, not Doctor Evil!! I am currently rocking the spirit of Yul...
Because of the nature of my work and temperament, I am at my happiest in t-shirt and boot-cut jeans covered in mud and paint but can scrub up if absolutely necessary.
About his ideal match
Tough one again...please ask me again later when I have had a chance to think about this some more.
