I'm essentially a one-man home studio production unit. I write, play, sing, record, edit in my off-grid solar-powered rural home, and connect with the world via satellite internet. I can play several instruments, but dwell mostly on guitars, both electric and acoustic, 6-string, baritone, and bass.

Story behind the song
I was splitting our winter's firewood when a log flew off the splitter and hit me in the face. While I was assessing whether or not I was dead or seriously injured, I envisioned these sketches of lucky guys who have all they need.
Lyrics
Picture of a Satisfied Man He wakes up in the morning, and looks for the signs He puts on his trousers, one leg at a time There's a message on the mirror in his sweet lady's hand Says "Take a Picture, of a Satisfied Man" Yeah, take a picture of a satisfied man He's bet on the home team, he's wagered the farm It's too late to save him from harm But he knows in his heart, it's according to plan Like a picture of a satisfied man He strolls down the sidewalk, one foot at a time He smiles like a king, if he finds a lost dime See the old man on the corner? Drop a coin in his can, He'll paint a picture of a satisfied man, Yeah, he'll paint a picture of a satisfied man He's laid out, he's played out, he's down for the count He thinks that it's time to disrobe and dismount It's a long-winded story that he tells on the stand, Painting a picture of a satisfied man, yeah, It's a picture of a satisfied man, yeah, It's a picture of a satisfied man...
