About the Road Kill Series:
"I don't know .... perhaps Bacon
or Soutien or some artist inspired me to begin the Road Kill
series. To date, there are only a few which include bugs, birds,
and mammals. Being without much technology or funds we would
keep stuff in the car to gather the subject up, then I would
paint it directly. The guys elected a spokesperson to try to
talk us out of this practice. At last we did give in and the
Road Kill series died. However there is a chance of reanimation
through technology and a little help from some friends."
