Hi, I met you at last night's show at the Victory and like your artwork. Can you talk about both your fine art and musical background?

Thanks for the note, it’s nice to know someone is enjoying the work. I don’t have a fine art background as related to formal training. On the other hand i’ve done so much collage work over the years, i probably qualify, based on Gladwell’s 10,000 hour rule, as a professional. Musically, i fronted an acoustic industrial band back in the ‘80’s and started playing kit drums about 10 years ago, did the rock band thing for about 5 years and haven’t played much in the last 4 years or so. I’m hopelessly self taught in most of my endeavors. If you would be interested in a studio visit, let me know, i’m happy to show people art and talk nonsense.
