In April of 2001 I accepted Mario Cuomo's outstretched hand and received a Bachelor of Fine Arts. That evening, beneath a sculpture of an enormous nose, I enjoyed an expensive meal with family and friends. The celebration continued at a Chippendales that was ingeniously disguised as a nightclub. I spent the evening with a BFA up my ass, dollar bills crowding my jock, a Makers Mark in one hand and a housemaid in the other. I spent the next several years making artwork until late 2004, at which time I was bound-n-gagged by rock-n-roll. Since late 2006 I've been working on a series of stories and artworks that will be produced and published over the next year or so.
