My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low-grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a 12 year old aboriginal inuit prostitute from Ottawa with a vindictive vocabulary and two feet. Summers in Rangoon luge lessons in the afternoon, whence bored we made meat helmets. If i was insolent i was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds, pretty typical really at the age of ten i received my first scribe. Bach, Chopin, Rachmaninov, Velasquez. Rembrandt, Schiele and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and and end.....

Or... I am a self taught artist.. in the early 2000s i started showing and selling my work, i quickly got disillusioned by the pretentiousness politics and sheer snobbery of mainstream galleries, recently with the inexorable rise of the internet i have found and shown at a few galleries below are some of the shows i have done...
