About Me |
|
I am an artist best known for my series of drawings called Prodigies — which depict genuine sideshow performers blended into contexts borrowed from art history. They're all Alive on the Inside . However, I am more than just a Celebrated Limner of Human Oddities. You can see my other artistic dabblings at MundieArt.com . Or, if you are so inclined, check out my photographs on Flickr .
By the way, if you wish to e-befriend me and I don't already know who you are but your profile is set to 'private', I'm probably not going to become your e-friend. Why? Because it's a big pain in the ass to accept you before I even know who you are. Call me picky, but seriously — what have you got to hide?
