Who cares. Those superstars get paid more money than the budget of a third world country.
Television
It mainly stinks - especially those brain dead reality shows that insanely think they are entertainment including such gems as big brother's apprentice and condescending I'm better than the whole of humanity and none of you are fit enough to lick my gold crusted arse although for a six figure sum I'll lower myself to lick yours, Mr. Sugarsehole. You are friggin fired!!!!
And why oh why does celebrity life celebrate money and material things. It's promoting the destruction of the planet. For earth's sake sugarbum, why not tap all of that creative initiative to help change the values of the masses. There is more to life than money. And I should know - I'm skint!!!!
About me: I am a long suffering artist and have three gorge daughters, a fabbo wife and my own garret to starve in. Although my art work is quite varied I want to show off my weirdy stuff to all of those art lovers out there. Most Galleries and the art establishment really piss me off as some of the so called experts are a set of dick-heads. I want you, the real people out there to appreciate my quirky werky, so let me know what you think. As well as images of my favourite works, I hope to enclose some images from an illustrated eco book that I wrote years ago. Unfortunately my fears for the environment have started to come true. My problem is that when I was younger I had some fantastic ideas for paintings - ideas that I now see young artists attempting to produce. I was ahead of my time. Now I'm older-I'm past it. So I've decided to girdle my loins and give it one last blast to see if I can become belatedly famous. The book is called Lord Muck and symbolises the greed of mankind in the form of a Victorian industrialist. But don't get me wrong - I'm not all gloom and doom as I am one barmy bugger who loves life, a good laugh, and partying My ambition is to die while dancing my odd socks off to the 'Funky Chicken', 'Mr. Boombastic' or 'Here Comes de Judge' by Pigmeat Markham.
Who I'd like to meet: Fred Astaire, Spike Milligan and Goya. Unfortunately they're dead. I used to like Ben Elton but now he makes my skin a bit crawly. I still like his books tho.
hy gav, long time no see. like your background drawing.just a warm welcome from captain gijsio at the river mark in breda the netherlands. one of the nicest towns in the south of holland. breda has the roots of our royal family. they started in 1403 in the castle of breda, when johanna van polanen married engelbert van nassau, and nassau is the familyname of queen beatrix. bye bye gav
Beg your pardon my English friend...I like a lot your dark draws...the culture we have is so terrible ...then It could be a sane reaction I think... Warms from the South Ale
