Hello and welcome to my lulu.com storefront. This is where I sell some of my little "artistic" efforts, mostly books and music. Please make sure to come back here and leave a customer review, if you've purchased a book or CD.
I also paint and draw. For most of my paintings, I have adopted a neo-primitivist style. I think it looks obvious looks obvious that I learned how to draw by copying comic strips as a child. Some of my friends think my paintings are beautiful, so if you want to check that out, feel free to go to my website's art gallery and my Hellenismos gallery (which contains devotional art and crafts). I am also on the artist networking and social gallery sites deviantART and y!gallery.
I am currently working on other stories involving a few of the characters in Simple Man, including Gaz Donaghue, Ripley Haggarty, and Angelica Perrey-Georgiou. Non-fiction projects I have in the works include a quasi-autobiographical devotional book and a collection of Greek mythos and devotional poetry to the Hellenic deities written in my own modern voice, as well as a full-length album for my noise project, This Is Where the Fish Lives, and maybe even some real music.

AdonisAdonis (artwork)
Art Print: $9.95 oil colours on a 9"x12" canvas
Adonis.
Flowers are poppies.
There's a Hesiodic fragment that contests that Adonis was born of Phoinix, though I think His position as a life-death-rebirth deity has it more appropriate that He be reborn of phoenix.
The original is not for sale. |

Print: $18.00 Download: $5.00 Peter West is amazingly well-adjusted for somebody in his position: castrated at the age of nine in the Summer of Love and raised by the "normal" member of a family of eccentrics and circus people. In this slice-of-life narrative of a castrato singer in the late Twentieth Century, the concepts of identity, masculinity, and adults still growing up are addressed in a series of vignettes, diary entries, interviews, and direct communication with divinity. An unusual story of an unusual man that is occasionally interrupted with internal monologues about the timelessness of music and how true art changes through our life experiences and the creator's emotional and spiritual growth. Simple Man has been called "engrossing" and "original" by beta-readers and readers of McElroy's blog often regard his writing style as "lively and funny" and "endearing despite himself."
