About Me

MyGen Profile Generator 28 stories vertical on the Isle of Manhattan, punch-drunk and giddy on the fumes of my own sweet self, wondering if lunch is 1 or 2 hours away (it's 2), dreaming delicate and dear of a sandwich sullen somewhere. A sand which never known, burst forth onto the scene like Teemu Selanne in the early 90's, tallying goals at will and dominating Uno tournaments across the land. I know now what I killed you for: a nickel, a new hat and a handshake.

I make pictures, I ride the subway. I love fried chicken and cream soda. I'll beat you at video game hockey and feel kinda bad about it.

"The job of the artist is always to deepen the mystery." - Francis Bacon

"Art is what you can get away with." - Andy Warhol
