Artist’s Statement

One day, I woke to discover even elephants can paint. Vowing not to be outdone by these artful creatures, I took up the cause. My subjects are not serious, unless you think Monty Python is serious. Humor tends to weasel its way in, despite stern resistance on my part.

I dream and work for the day when real experts will deem my skill sets as high art, worthy of the painting pachyderms. I would also like to someday be celebrated as the “Father of Brief and Somewhat Less Pretentious Artist’s Statements.”

Caveat emptor.
