Details from the catalogue

‘I've always liked the expression like a dog with a bit between the teeth - knowledge and learning is like that, once you get started you just can't let go, and apparently sometimes for dogs when they shag - it's like that they just can't let go = and somehow I started thinking about sex, and that's when I drew the naked women with a smile right across her face - I enjoy what I do ‘
