My name is Dylan. Grown in Australia and ripened in Europe I now reside in Fairytale Germany with my wife, two sons and baby daughter. I was called to Europe by folktales and mythology, by its people and the places they inhabit. My first encounter with the Indian gods was the great Shiva wallhanging at my Australian farewell party, a herald of things to come.

Literally dancing with fire like Shiva Nataraja, I whirled through Europe's dense story-verse. I found old magic and places of power, and in amongst it all rhythmically repeating encounters with mantra, yoga and the divine. I was led into an ever deeper fascination with the living mythology of India, the many gods and goddesses, their attributes and their existence in our own intrinsic nature and daily lives.

I have a vision of sharing a collection of art, illustrations, stories and mantras rooted in a wealth of living history and personal experience, creating a space and participating in an engaged and open community.

Your support will enable me to dedicate time to the study of the many attributes and personifications of the divine all around us. To explore the interconnectedness of diverse cultural mythologies and related symbols, sacred texts, mantras and calligraphy. Learning and sharing my discoveries and insights and respective creations with you along the way.
