About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To apply purple polka-dots to the cosmic fabric of today.

ABOUT ME

I am drawn to that which I do not understand, to wonder, to silliness. I enjoy art, thinking about thinking, finding the clown's perspective on any given situation, animals, the strange presence lurking inside of trees, laughter.I am presently traveling Mexico and will be settling in Mexico City/Distrito Federal come late December.

PHILOSOPHY

Smiles that need no reason.
Merging imagination and reality.
