The Artist

Since being born in the comic fires, I have emerged as a Hopi ant-creature, carrying the sweet nectar and fibrous bindings of philosophers, saints, and madmen. Here are the facts:

• I know the Truth, and it is variable. Prometheus is in my contacts list.
• I drink tea made from Hermetic Traditions, Slut-wave pop, and endless cravings to travel beyond my fingers.
• My brushes and implements are dipped in a thaumaturgical elixir, mixed with the powder fine grindings of potent ecstasies.
• Drinking from my chalice will result in visions of grandeur and ignite the fire in your soul.

Influences: Albrecht Durer, Breughel the Elder, Jacobus de Teramo, Blavatsky, Bosch, Manly P. Hall, Kuksi, Giger, Dali, Terry Pratchett, Ezra Kristian, and Pythagoras.

Many thanks to Muffy for giving me the cliff to leap from, Paul Scott for shinning light into the shadows, Curtis Hance for keeping me guessing, and Steve True for helping me keep my head on.

Thanks for watching.
