About Me

art is working on something til you like it – then leaving it. art helps fill the void. art is one of the few things left worth doing. art is what kids do to survive in an authoritarian society. when it is real, art can heal. art is a velvet painting in flames. art can pick you up and slap you around. good art won’t match your sofa. bad art just might match perfectly. art never leaves you where it found you. art is a whole bunch of words on a card in a store or a gallery that carries a whole bunch of stuff that may or may not be art. art is a different kind of mirror. art is more than pretty pictures. art is for keeps. art is where your ego withers and your true self is revealed. art that pleased your mom and dad probably won’t please you. art is your mother comforting you. it is fun fun fun to paint along with the man on pbs. art can sneak inside your brain and make you feel differently about others. art can make you laugh and cry and get pissed off and think. art leaves nothing to hide. art is a universal language. art is now. art is not a religion. art can’t hurt you.
