Relax, it's only Benjamin.

About Me

I am a caricature artist supporting a music habit. I travel all over the country, working at state and county fairs.

My Interests

I love to swim, I play the guitar, base, piano, bamboo flute, melodica, drums, saxaphone, and trying to learn the violin.

I'd like to meet:

Anyone who has ever called Coast to Coast with Art Bell. Except for Carl with the six fingers, I think he's scary.

Music:

Sleepytime Gorrilla Museum, Kate Bush, King Diamond, Steve Reich, King Ccrimson, Mike Patton, Dream Theater, Crapwitch, Johnny Cash, Zappa, Claypool, Mike Kneally, Pink Floyd, Secret Chiefs 3, STS9, Tom Waits, Weird Al, John Zorn, Estradasphere, DMB, Bradford Reed, Bobby Mcferrin, Beatles, and Beck. Just to name a few.

Movies:

Movies are good. Drama. Numb the mind. I appreciate a good Director more than a good story.

Television:

Judging Amy, Mash, Dr.Phil but he's got too many commercials. I watch with my mom. She likes crime dramas, they give me nightmares. When I have a chance, I'll turn on Adult Swim but she's watching NYPD Law and order blue. Robot Chicken All the way!!! For some reason I leave the TV on all night when I stay in a Motel.

Books:

"Virtues Laws and Powers" by Annonymous changed my life, also, "The Kin Of Atta Are Waiting For You" is an eye opener. But any old paperback will do. Its the opposite of movies for me. Give me a good story rather than a good writer, my brain will do the rest.

Heroes:

Mike Patton, Daniel Merriam, Ralph Steadman, Leonardo Davinci, Nills Fryckdl, and Steve Fasen, and my Brother Jesse
