about
Socrates said that the unexamined life is not worth living. If that is true, then my life is really, really worth living.
About me:
• I have a BFA in graphic design & painting, an MFA in painting.
• I live in Memphis, and work as an art director.
• I do freelance design work when it speaks to me. (Not in actual voices, mind you – but emotionally). Otherwise I’d rather be painting. Or running. Or playing.
• My friend told me that dogs mirror their owner’s issues. My dog nurses on his binky, beats the crap out of it and then makes love to it over and over and over. What does that tell you?
• I love sushi without discrimination. Like if you told me we were going to eat sushi but we were going to a Greek restaurant and they also happened to make sushi… I would eat it.
• As a young child, I believed that birthdays were water towers, and when they were getting close they would uproot their long, telescoping legs and come to my house.
