Be decisive .
Love yourself .
I've seen your art, it's beautiful.

The same thing happened to me! I refused to go to art school. I regret it but I had other plans in life.

Re: Three things you would say to your 18 year old self

I’d say to myself, keep going as you are lad, your on the right track.

(1) Get married young and enjoy growing up with your kids.

(2) Don’t make any big plans, they seldom work out and you won’t be disappointed.

(3) Never lose your sense of humour, it’s better than any medicine.

In other words, I’d do it all again the same way.

Two things I would say
1. Keep going just as you are it will be incredible
2. Don't let the b'stds grind you down

I wouldn't want to take the fun out of life by saying anything to me ... so I wouldn't.

Me too. I was an obsessed and melanoma ignorant surfer. The ocean and the sun were my gods. I'm still alive. I'm lucky. NOW I use sunscreen. MOving right along....

1. Get that wave
2. Get it first.
3. Own it.

Or do you mean what would I say now to myself then?

If so:-

1. Learn to sight read music.
2. Help your parents more in the garden
3. Stay away from places where skinheads hang out.

Really! I love records and still buy them once in a while. Mp3s are fun, but there's something amazing about vinyl Records. They're just fun to listen to. And they make great collectables!
