This is a must see movie 'song of songs'

Latest books: Mark Shagal 'my life' and Patrick Hamilton 'twenty thousand streets under the sky'...

All of my house mates are gone and i'm living in a big house on my own.With no computer i listen to radio 3 most of the time,it's a classic music station and i enjoy to listen the way presenters talk-their language is polite,warm and welcoming...

I should have some new photographs to show soon...

Found old slides in my drawer and was thinking what is there to do with them?Then i found a transparent plastic covers for files,a bit of glue,small envelopes and scissors:) So i made a bunch of small frames and put them in small envelopes to give away to my class-mates today when i'll go to second year documentary photography student exhibition in Cardiff )) Sorry for bad quality photos but there was only small dig. camera around ))

Andrey took this one of me when we had a walk in the woods last winter.I'm missing my bike sometimes here but he is in very good hands now and is properly fixed! causing mayhem on the streets of Vilnius :) This summer hopefully I'll get myself together and build a new fixie to ride down around the Wales!!!

Waiting for a tube in the early morning hours somewhere in London.Bank holiday monday and I almost missed my bus to Newport .)

This is how angry customers call me at work after i'm being rude with them.Living in a small coal miners town in South Wales has it's own rules and beauties.People are simple here and take no shit.At work i deal with all sorts of drunk heads,chaws,locals etc...If they are nice to me i'm nice to them,but in many cases it's the other way around.This is when all the fun begins!Usualy annoyed customers call me 'cheeky foreign cunt' or 'dickhead' or 'drive'(because all the taxi drivers are from Pakistan it's common for locals to call foreign people working in service industry 'drives').After they've expressed their feelings towards me upset customers usualy add something like 'I'll smash your fucking face' or 'let's go outside you skinny fuck and sort it out there'.I'm a peaceful lad and a light weight one,but since I've moved here some old predatory instincts awakened in me.I yell at drunk dushbags and call them twats and arseholes.I also love to call them bloody shites..
It's only after work when i walk home and listen to birds singing i manage to relax and return to my zen like feel to life..

This year it's going to happen again!All creative people are more than welcome!!!

for true love..
every man whants his woman to leave him alone..

One day when I was 17 my girlfriend at that time told me that she've met an interesting girl wondering on the streets of our hometown.She told me girls name was Aushie and that she had dreadlocks.9 years ago there was no one wearing dreadlocks in my hometown and there was this secret admiration for people who had them.We met Aushie next day and got to know that she lives in Shiauliai (around 200km away from Klaipeda) and runs a punk squat in a youth center there.My girlfriend fell in love with her immediately and as for me-it took me quite a long time to build a friendship that lasts till this day...Many years had gone by,i'm not with that girl anymore-she rests peacefully in heaven and Aushie-suddenly-turned hip-hop (between us there is always a memory of this girl) is living in Galway,Ireland-where she worked as an architect before crisis showed up and sent to bollocks many young peoples careers.I've just spent a while chatting with her over skype.Life is funny sometimes-in a time of crisis people still fall in love-so my dear Aushie has a crush on this boy/producer/mc from Boston named Edan and despite all shite she's applying to few universities in Europe to continue her studies.We talked feelings,family and how we dream to be kids for a long long time to come...

Paper pilot is flying his balloon above busy city skies.It's full of real planes and big birds,lots of electricity cables and antennas on top of the roofs.Our pilot is in big danger!Where he flies one may ask?I do not know that yet.But i know his biggest fear-he fears of rain the most-it can kill our brave hero immediatly!But for now he continues to fly.And he is proud of his baloon...

p.s. any one is welcome to draw pictures for the book,or to write short stories,or to make photographs to teach kids photography and the world..
