Summary

After completing a surgical internship, I discharged myself from the hospital AMA and disappeared into an art studio, where I've been happily stitching words and pictures together for more than a quarter century.

Eventually returned to Birmingham, AL as Chief Visual Humorist at the DS Art Studio Gallery. My practice is currently limited to disorders of the funny bone, and endogenous endorphin management.
