I've been buying landscapes and painting monsters into them for many years now. I first saw the idea while on tour in Germany, and at one venue/gallery there was one painting that was exactly that: obviously 'found' landscape with a cartoonish monster proudly standing in the middle. Unfortunately I was performing around that same moment and wasn't able to record the artist or the piece that was at the gallery, but that idea burned in my mind as I came across old, often poorly rendered landscape paintings at the thrift stores I frequented. 

There is a world that has grown from these paintings, one that all the monsters inhabit. It involves rainbow fountains, gleaming jewels, and multi-dimensional music. Each painting shows a little bit more lore of this strange world.

I invite you to explore it and discover for yourself.
