Sounds a bit cliched but wouldn’t it be dull if it was any other way?. There is taking risks and then there is going too far. This painting is just the right side of a 60’s pyschedelic album cover.

I may have to leave the comforts of my newly built studio and venture into the countryside. The horror.
