About Geoff
 
Geoff Parker Geoff was born in a log cabin in the wilds of the west... no that's not right. Ok. I was born in a hospital and my mother was there too. I ate lots of food and got bigger but still smaller thanmost of my classmates including the girls, who teased me more mercilessly than the boys. They stopped after a while becuase I had graduated from high school. I then attended an art college and drew and painted which was a lot of fun.

I now entered a period of my life where I thought I should do things to make my mother worry about my safety and my sanity. I worked on large ranches as a cowhand. Lots of horses and lots of fun. Then I went to Alaska and fished for different stuff and that was not as fun as the being a cowhand. I have been eating all the while but still I am small so I don't have to eat as much as some other people. oh yeah. There were periods during this epoch of my life where I would drift around just looking at the world. That was lot's of fun too.

It is later now and I decide to have a family. The usual events surround this topic. It also provides me with the greatest happiness I could imagine. Three daughters that still make living on this planet a thing of pure joy. They are my best friends and always will be I hope.

It is much later now and I am painting for the shear joy of painting. It is pure meditation and when it is done with out a self or any thought of fame or gain it produces a result I have been searching for all my short life. That is what you are seeing on this website.
