20 YEARS A TEACHER - My thank yous

I have been thinking on this for some time so it's probably best that I act upon it. I want to say thank you to some people without whom I would not be doing what I'm doing now. If I miss anyone out please forgive me. I also acknowledge the influence of Chauvet Caves, Leonardo Da Vinci, Albrecht Durer, William Blake and Saul Bass.

I will try to do this in chronological order and unfortunately some of these people are no longer with us.
