Stories were passed down from those who were old ones when the old ones were young ones. They told cautionary tales about the masked men in the woods.
The masked men in the woods would come hidden from behind the trees at the edge of the wood, slowly at first, creeping, skulking and silent until they would launch into a horrifying gallop towards the towns. They were hard to see with attentive eyes but you could catch a quick sight if you were caught off guard. "They were thieves! Dirty rotten thieves!" The old ones would say, "Taking things that don’t belong to them!". Trinkets and baubles mostly, little things you would miss and they presumed you would go looking for. The search would lead you deep into the woods, much deeper than decent folk dare to wander and slightly deeper than young boys claim to have gone. Once you’ve gone that far they’ll come down from the trees, "and you won’t even know because they sound like the wind in the leaves and nothing more!" What happens next is anyone’s guess.
We caught one once, but he faded away as we held him down and all that was left was this. Tags:Art Scary Story Trees 0 Comments

A drawing of me. I didn’t have a mirror and thus could not see if I had or did not have antlers. I though it best to play it safe. Tags:Drawings Funny Imaginary Thomas 0 Comments

About meI am an artist for lack of a better word. I hate the term "artist" because it conjures up the vision of a holier-than-thou hipster type who makes up profound meanings for a blue canvas. Post modernism is rarely art. I’m not really an artsy person either. My wife studied art history and I enjoy things like that. I mostly subscribe to the "I may not know art, but I know what I like" philosophy.
I prefer terms like "Tinkerer", "Creator", "Maker" and "Builder". Constructive terms.
I like to make new things out of junk, bits, pieces and various miscellania. I recently decided this compulsion to build complex compilations of simple parts has roots in my childhood obsession with LEGO. My father made me a LEGO table from an old door and steel brackets that sat in our basement. I think I spent more time seated at that table bushing aside an ocean of coloured bricks searching for the specific one I needed than most people spent outside in their childhood.
