"You buzz in my ear,
you steal from my drink,
you dive at my face
before I can blink.

A sacred nuisance,
nature’s quirk,
you gift us beauty,
then make it hurt.

You’re loud, you’re rude,
you never learn,
but I guess we’d miss you
when it’s your turn,
tiny little stinging jerk."

Get to Know The Austin Artist:
Phill’s enthusiasm as an artist is fueled by his love for the complex aspects of urban environments.
Placing the importance of expression at the forefront of each piece, he is guided by the desire to create authentic experiences of place. He challenges the connotations of place and argues that is more than a synonym for location, offering instead that it is a unique ensemble of nature and culture.
