Let me explain about the canvases

See, if you are reading the Andyfan posts regularly, and you should be, you may have heard mention of how when I used to paint I would not stretch my own canvases. I want to be clear, here. It’s not that I wouldn’t, it’s that I would rather have someone else do it for me. (I would never buy pre stretched canvas in those days.) And there were so many willing participants to do this for me, to keep me quiet or stop me from making a scene I suspect. I hope so, because that was my intention. It was a way of amusing myself. (Nobody amuses me like me, especially now that ‘The General’ has transcended.) And I do like to amuse myself. And I am most amused when… well.. lets just say, my Tom Sawyer comes out.

And my best work comes out, my best ‘me’ comes out, when I am amused.
