vocals and rhythm guitar
"patrik, vocals and rhythm guitar", acrylic on paper, 2006 - 2008. every band needs a self appointed leader, someone who really wants to be top of the pops. in teddy quiff and the combusers that person was patrik.
every band needs someone who can't play (as well as the others). in teddy quiff and the combusers that person was me.
it is not uncommon for the self appointed leader to believe that the one and only thing standing between him ( rock is a mans world) and world domination is the band member who can't play as well as the others. this can lead to awkward situations. patrik was last seen strumming his guitar at a holiday resort i greece.
what the h*ll is a quiff?

"rene, the finish drummer boy", 29.7 * 21 cm, acrylic on paper, 2006 - 2010. the story of "teddy quiff and the comb users" has not yet been told ( as far as i know). they were the very first band foolish enough to employ my servicesl. we tried to please everyone, playing anything from "tell laura i love her" to "blitzkrieg bop". we ended up pleasing no-one.
