It took me four years to paint like Raphael, but a lifetime to paint like a child.”

Want the back story?

Well, it’s like this… I’m sick.

As in zippo creativity. Zilch enthusiasm. Z-E-R-O energy.

So I lobbed them a cardboard box and a roll of aluminum foil.

In less than 10 minutes they were both sporting tinfoil space-helmets and rocketing to the distant reaches of our solar system.

La vie est art, oui?

(Life is art, yes?)

At least that’s the theory I’m stickin’ to until my head-cold clears up enough to come up with a better one.
