Psychosis descended but like an angel
1996 ~
I imagined her having a form like that of a Romantic Avenging Angel imagining too that if the words she spoke to me were audible she would have spoken in beautiful mowtown tones. 
I think of her now as the lonely bride.

Persona non grata.

A long time ago I willfully mistook pleasure for pain, heaven for hell.

True babes, insatiable with need indifferent to cost.

Irriting but no less true, practice does make perfect (if you can get that far).  Experiencing and expressing joy is not exempt from this.I once witnessed a man’s face contract horribly and devolve into that of a monkey (frozen in a look of terror and indignation) after having mixed up and injected Iron tablets mistaking them for pharmaceutical opiates. Well one mans loss..

Persona non grata.

About:

Memories and reflections on the drug life, hedonistic self destruction and aspiration.

Most of the sketches here are automatic drawings produced in many cases during periods of prolonged drug psychosis and or encounters / with the paranormal (the reader is invited to consider both as authentic recollections ).

My aim is to try and post drawings in a way which makes some chronological sense to me while providing narrative value.

Hardly a single experience or idea made it into a completed work but was never the less stored and then forgotten about for some years, either out of neglect or fear.
