About Me


No matter what we talk about,
we are talking about ourselves.


"The probability that human intelligence developed all the way from the chemical ooze of the primeval ocean solely through random sequences of random mechanical processes has been aptly compared to the probability of a tornado blowing through a gigantic junkyard and assembling by accident a 747 jumbo jet."

Art needs to be everywhere. There is nothing more fascinating to me than an addiction to pointless beauty. I'm very happy to do commissions... don't be shy! Your pets, your dining room table, your band's album cover, or your Aunt Debbie: I can paint them all.
O the wind is blowing, it hurts your skin
as you climb up hillside, forest and fen.
your arms full of lullabies, orchids and wine
your memories wrapped within paper and twine.
the room that you lie in is dusty and hard
sleeping soft babies on piles of yards
of gingham, taffeta, cotton and silk
your dry hungry mouths cry for your mother's milk.

too late.
