- If you're an artist, what kind of art do you make?
- Painting
- I am...
- I work with a combination of oil, acrylic, egg tempera, charcoal, and ink, using modifications of traditional glazing techniques. I frequently paint with my fingers and incorporate additional ingredients and textures such as animal hair, dirt, dust, blood, and sand.
- About my artwork
- My artwork honors the traditions of Horror and Fantasy, the twin stepchildren of Myth lurking in the shadows of the information age.

- Artists I like
- Dali, Bacon, Blake, Fuchs, Giger, Varo, Magritte, Ernst, Bosch, Bellmer, Albright, Beksinski, Crumb, Nerdrum
- Interests
- art, fiction, horror, fantasy, chipping paint, dust, crayons, bodily functions, afternoon light, roundness, wetness, heaviness, darkness
- Centre of the artworld:
- online
