More about Zen

I like making art. I commute on the train with an active doodle pad. I scribble through meetings. I save everything. They are all puzzle pieces that form bigger stories. I am first and foremost a storyteller.

Dans fantasy is to play harmonica in a reggae band.

THE EYECANDY UNIVERSE SHOPPING EXPERIENCE
​a shameless plea for money...

Making a living as an artist is a tough gig. Artists', like this one, would much rather be making art than hustling dollars. For us, it is almost embarrassing to ask for money. To overcome this dilemma, I decided to make a shopping experience that is entertaining. Now I feel like I"m giving you something of value, so you will feel happily compelled to give me something of value in return. Preferrably in US denominations. 

​Please feel free to write and help me get better at this money thing...
