The Aesir and Vanir, my family, friends, my oddesign clients, my artistic patrons and friends. My artistic influences include:
Van Gogh, Georges Braque, Pablo Picasso, Frida Kahlo, Marcel Duchamp, Wassily Kandinsky, Max Ernst, Salvador Dali... and living artists who I interact with all the time through the web we now take for granted. Cheers to everyone growing an artist network.
Some quotes I like: 'Whenever there is great property, there is great inequality. For one very rich man, there must be at least five hundred of the poor, and the affluence of the few supposes the indigence of the many...' - Adam Smith
'The very rich are different from you and me,'' F. Scott Fitzgerald once observed. Ernest Hemingway's wry reply was, ''Yes, they have more money.''
"Art is always and everywhere the secret confession, and at the same time the immortal movement of its time." - Karl Marx

I paint motion and the emotions that have coloured my perceptions of motion. Over the years, this has made me strive to appreciate living in the moment of Now more and more. I wish to pay attention to what is happening immediately around me. I paint live at events. I paint at bars in the evening where you would never expect to see an artist. I've painted in churches and I have painted at raves. I love painting spoken word gatherings. I am inspired by the words and escape the hermit-as-artist stereotype by getting myself out where people are. I don't wave my arms about madly, but I do create and sell a finished work each time I paint at events.
If you would like to see me paint live, check out Word Iz Bond each month. If you're a DJ, band, poet or other performer and you would like me to paint your show, let me know. I also keep a regular art blog updated at least weekly.
What's your motivation? What moves you? I love meeting other artists... so by all means say hello!
Who I'd like to meet: Artists, painters, writers, musicians, singers, comedians, producers, dreamers, visionaries, body acceptance activists, freelancers, free thinkers, free agents, but please no free-for-alls.
I want to meet positive people. People who are sick of nasty people. Real people. Fantastic people. Fascinating people.
Anyone who dares to have a dream, to create a new tomorrow, to envision better ways to structure our communities and lives so that everyone can be happier and healthier together - people who keep it real - I want to meet you.

DJ Monkey …soul-stirring, excitingly edgy music…just disturbing (read ‘mind-f**king’) enough to demand attention. There is a whole spice rack of auditory flavors here, served up like fractured poetry on a collection of intensely listenable Hallmark cards from Hell.
