I'm a renegade artist despised by the Art Community and regarded as a carbuncle on Propriety's nutsack by Society-at-Large. But what the heck, it's a living. During my lifetime I've plumbed the art underground and swum the carnal fleshpool of publishing. In the late 60s I made comix with Robert Crumb and illustrated my friend Abbie Hoffman's "Steal this Book". I was the founding art director of Hustler and art directed at Playboy during the preposterous disco decade ('75 to '85). Currently I produce large cartoon canvasses depicting social abomination, sexual equivocation and political treachery. And 3D art that's constructed from toys glued into depraved configurations , gold paint, red glitter, hanging chains and beads -- like obscure relics of an alien religion. I'm bringin' the bling! Metaphysically speaking.

I love drawing women. I'm producing a book of my drawings of women. During my adult life I've been surrounded by females, and I prefer their company to that of males (who always leave the toilet seat up). I've had three wives and four daughters. My best friends are women. I have a strong female side. It's called Multiple Personality Disorder. When a woman has my attention I like to peel back the layers -- like an onion -- trying vainly to find out what's going on in there until tears stream down my face. I'm a hopeless romantic in an hopelessly unromantic world.

I'm an anarchist, a proponent of Chaos Theory and a great cook (Maybe they won't shoot the cook). I'm a cartoonist and a writer. I'm a pagan who doesn't follow the the Party Line, a loose canon in the genepool. I've got mileage on the odometer and the dogged sagacity that ocassionally comes with age.

I'm writing a book about my life and art titled "My Bitter Agenda", 30 chapters (or so) of which can be viewed at skipwilliamson.blogspace.com
