Due to the writer dropping the ball, no images of my art were included in the article, but the interview was good and [...]

Be creative, innovative, different, do whatever, use whatever media, any colours any configuration, it doesn’t matter as long as somewhere EBSQ or ebsqart.com is included. Weird, wacky, out there, over there, anywhere – it’s all welcome, so let your mind wander and come back with something [...]
