Bio

I’ve been a chronic doodler since i got my first hit of fresh paper - I’ve been obsessed since. I’m addicted to pens and paper, the smell of paint and the feel of a brush in my hands. I’ve tried to get help, but nothing seems to replace that rush I get when I see a blank sheet of paper. My condition seems genetic as my dad and younger siblings display some of these very same symptoms; I only wish them the best.

It’s been pretty bad lately. the art world is a harsh one to live in. I can hardly pass a colorful scrap of trash on the cement, a broken tree branch, or a .50 cent vintage magazine without drooling, grabbing, and eagerly placing it into the depth of my pockets. I don’t know if my condition will ever seize - it seems to be worsening and growing to monstrous proportions. The other day I saw a scrap of metal in the trash bin and, as disgusting as this sounds, I dove in head first to claim my “prize”. God help me.
