Des Howell

Des Howell is a self-represented artist and writer living in Caloundra West, Sunshine Coast, Queensland, Australia.

I have always enjoyed creating artworks. Most of my working life, however, has been spent as a teacher, librarian and instructor in schools and colleges.

I work in a wide range of media, but I tend to fulfil a lot of requests for graphite pencil and charcoal portraiture on paper. You can check out this diversity at http://www.freewebs.com/djharts

Philosophically I believe Art is a verb, not an object. It is something that happens when people create and continues when others appreciate and enjoy what you have done.
