Who is Alister?
He has liked art from a very young age. As Pablo Picasso once said “Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up.”
Alister has also recently started writing short stories, poetry, Haiku, and non-fiction.
He has a great interest in the environment and is especially knowledgable in lowland heathland and the creatures that live there. 
Alister plays chess, grows plants, lives with two giant house rabbits named Clyde and Isaac (who have their own page on this site), makes things out of wood, and creates robots and other gadgets using Raspberry Pi and Arduino and anything else he has to hand.
