I'm interested in juxtaposing traditional handmade crafts with one of the more extreme musical genres, Heavy Metal. My work can be described as a collision of Iron Maiden Metal ballads with the outrageous stage antics of Ozzy Osbourne. Serious, yet attempting to take on a B movie Horror film style where even the beasts of Metal need a warm blanket to sleep with. The question remains… Can I play with madness?


Somehow I'm reminded of Napoleon Dynamite, and Jim from "the office"

Nothing like my prized handmade quilt from my late Grandma, but still pretty cool.

Gonna have to show this to my Ma. Quilting is one of the retirement activities she's taken up.
