He’s MANY, many things
Cameron Arksey: A creative professional by trade, looking to be taken only somewhat seriously as an "artist-in-residence" of his own life at this point. A writer, photographer, visual artist, firefighter, Daddy, and more.
After years of making design and communications his work, he is remembering that it also used to be his passion before it got completely monetized and he fell a bit out of love with it, in spite of having to keep going — to keep it together for the kids.
These days, he's trying his hand at creative writing for fun (trying to be funny) but also not forgetting that he has some hard-earned depth and sensitivity, which when paired with a state/personality trait of LGBT experience-driven hyper-awareness and self-criticality, can make for some soulful happy sighs or soothing of scars earned many years back.
Short stuff like poetry or microstories is where he shines, says his partner, whose opinion matters most. "You specifically excel in wordplay," one Daddy tells the Other Daddy. Other Daddy is Arksey's pen-name and, decidedly, his alter-ego.
some NICE PICTURES
Camera often in hand lately, you’ll see some nice pictures come out of his time spent in nature or in the studio. Obviously inspired by the beauty of local flora, tulips and other colourful blooms feature heavily in his photographic arts.
The things people say are good for you actually are.
Like drawing
Or painting
Or exploring

Read some of my thoughts. It won’t cost you anything except your time. Which might be worth a lot, so for that I’m sorry.
