20 years studying the philosophy, techniques and applications of abstract art. I discoverd the mental process of abstraction extends to many aspects of life from how you organize your kitchen to how you multi-task at work. So my broader study now is how abstraction is used in creativity!

When I found Permaculture I was blown away! Aerial views of permaculture designs reveal giant abstract/cubist artworks... chop and drop mulching the ultimate expression of Jackson Pollock! I'm a Monet guy so when I thought about his famous works being hybrid lily pads I began to make the connections... After completing my first PDC with Geoff Lawton, I'm seriously looking at finding, presenting and teaching the connections between Abstract Art process and Permaculture Design.

Currently I'm writing the blog Duvall Homestead on wordpress.

First Permaculture Homestead

Well I bought my first property this winter and I can't wait to get out and start modifying it this spring!
