A man who works with his hands is a laborer;
A man who works with his hands and his brain is a craftsman;
But a man who works with his hands and his brain and his heart is an artist.

oil on canvas. 2005.

Bored one day in college, I took one of my favorite albums at the time and decided to just paint it. The cover has always reminded me of the first time I was on stage where all the lights were on me, and the crowd was in darkness.
