arrived on planet earth feet first on the summer solstice. raised by a chemicaly dependant,dysfuctional,violent family,
(grew up with an allergy to reality.)
i cant ever remember not doing art. through whatever life has thrown my way it has always been my first home.
i am an outsider artist, i have never been taught.
i have learnt by doing, it is how i process stuff!
art is my religion = way of life
remember, without art we would be looking at bare walls!!!!

Je découvre l'univers d'artyshal, plein de couleurs et de formes en tout sens, definitely out of control and that's certainly why so many people appreciate his art.
Artyfisha/44's artwork is nothing less than amazing and exciting. All his works are colorful and thought provoking concepts even when just an abstract. Everything Jim does, turns to gold.

Officially known as artyfishal44 Jim takes loaves and fishes and turns them into art. His creativity and brilliance shine in all directions: In his amazing work; in his brilliant and funny and erudite comments; in his ability to understand and interpret other peoples art. That he makes the effort shows he's got a big heart. And a big smile he must also have. I am fortunate to have made artyfishal's aquaintance and i am better for it. He is as real as it gets; no artificial flavoring; his art is something worth savoring.
