I am a recently graduated BA Fine art student, this blog is intended to detail the ideas and construction of my studio practice. My work is about exploring the notion of taboo, censorship and obscenity. I recently started using digital manipulation, but primarily work in painting and drawing. My work often uses transgressive themes which contain nudity.If you are under 18 or feel you may be offended by this, please leave the site now. Thank you.

Cultist drawing.
Pencil drawing.
My research in to the psychology and history of cults.
Jim Jones was responsible for the largest death of American citizens after 9/11, Jones a psycopathic cult leader established JonesTown in Guyana. With him as total leader, sexually and financially exploiting his followers.
After pressure form concerned relatives a United States Senator flew to investigate, to determine if the followers were allowed to leave. With the senator as support many cult members asked to leave with him. Fearing a loss of his control ,Jones ordered those loyal to him to shoot them all, everyone else was ordered at gun point to drink poisoned Kool Aid. Babies were injected with syringes to ensure no one survived.
The UFO and comet and Omega symbol are from The Heavens Gate cult in which members believed through suicide they would ascend spritualy to a higher form of existance. Scooped up by a UFO hiding in the trail of the HAIL BOPP comet.
