My Recent Art Attack
OK, I’m sorry! To the great multitude of my blog followers, I am truly sorry. It has been a very long time since I’ve posted anything and I know many of you were worried about me.
The rumors are true; I did have an Art Attack. It all started very suddenly and I wasn’t able to call for help for months. My body is showing the signs of the wear and tear that such a major event can have on someone. For example. My belly is sticking out as far as it ever has and all my t-shirts are stained with paint and globs of glue.
One day I even found a screw behind my ear. I spent many long hours, hunkered down in my garage under hot lights with the fumes of thinners and spray paint.
I lived only on Diet Coke and sunflower seeds.
The radio was switched back and forth from classical, classical to classical rock. My fingers had large balls of gluey sawdust at the tips, like when you’re breading fish; I guess you could call them “Liquid Nail, Hush Puppies.”
The Mad frenzy of production which accompanied my Art Attack resulted in the completion of several works. It had the therapeutic affects of a good artery scrapping. Aside from the belly protrusion, I feel great.
I hope this puts to rest all the chatter about my whereabouts and concerns about my health. I had an Art attack, and I survived. I am posting photos of the bits and pieces of junk that were removed from my being.
P.S. I promise to take better care of myself.

Somehow I found your site, and wanted to let you know how I enjoy looking at your art and reading your stories. I have started my own site and wanted to use your words “art attack” so I put a link to your website, seeing as those words were exactly how I feel when I am wanting to create something of my own. Hope this is okay, if not email me, okay
oh, don’t to expect to get much traffic from my website…..:)
