I draw on bananas now. Bananas are cool.

Sometime last year I decided it would be fun to try making some banana art. Generally, folks have accepted this new fascination without question. My friends are very understanding. ;)

Okay, there are a couple of commonly asked questions: 

1. How do you make these? 
You simply bruise the skin of the banana by scratching it with a pin, toothpick, or other sharp implement of choice. After a few minutes, the image will gradually start to appear as the lines darken.

2. Why Doctor Who? 
Well, the Doctor is known to be a fan of bananas. That seemed a good enough reason at the time.

4. No, wait a minute... 
3. Are you going to keep making these crazy things?
Oh, probably! Any requests? :)

How I Spent My Saturday Afternoon

This probably won't make sense to more than about 8 people, but what the heck!

Hey look- I made a music video!

Episode II: A New Turkey

Not long ago, in the city where we all live...

It is August, and a young man has taken it upon himself to order a TURKEY. Not just any turkey: a free-range, organic turkey from APOLLO POULTRY...

It is December, and a young woman has a vision: knit a turkey and wear it as a HAT. Will her audacious dream come to pass?

We join our heroes on Bowen Island, to witness the collision of these events. It may just be the BEST CHRISTMAS EVER...
