about me:: moondog loves scones

I'm the founder of the accidental cult: "moondog loves you", leaving small pieces of cardboard with my artwork on around the world. If you want to join my club I'll send you a load of tags for you to put around to spread the love.

I am also part of the HungaMunga posse who organise parties, championing new music, with arts and crafts, live bands, DJs, gameshows, performance, prizes, robots, projections and of course scones... HUNGAMUNGA is at Bethnal Green Working Men's Club with loads of painting and making stuff... imagine a kind of "Later... with Rolf Harris" ... check our website for details of our next event. www.hungamunga.co.uk

I used to be an animator, now I work at Tate Modern, draw cartoons and put on art parties.

I'm honest, positive, romantic, fun, silly, creative, outgoing, open-minded, passionate, a little bit naughty and ever so modest. I will always try to be the best friend you could ever have.
