About The Artwork

This piece was done in 2016 and I wigged out and through it of the front porch and broke the back-ground wood at the whales tail and left it in the rain in the front yard for 2 weeks.....and it rusted......repeated again the next week and it was scratched all to hell..... then after my dad made me pick it up I sprayed fu-c U with black paint on the front of it......so I decided to redo it last month so I had no money and just worked with the broken wooden tail and so I decided to take a brick chisel to it and beat the hell out of it and then took a torch to it and burned the old finish off it (you can see it around the edge still) but burned... then I took the grinder to it....... it's now called the distressed look...... and I think it looks better now than it did with the new just finished to look new look it had in 2016 when it was a new art piece. It now has character and that old whaler weathered look and beaten-up up now like life's beaten-up on me........but just needed some love to bring it back to life......

Hello, my name is Travis Bodle, a 47 year old, single male and Village Idiot with Schizophrenia who was once normal and loved fishing now living on Social Security Disability since 2004 so, so WHATEVER!!!!!!!!!!! I was born in 1970 in San Diego and moved to Jamul when I was in the 5th grade. Jamul was then a small rural country town but "City Close" I was in 4-H and we raised Suffolk Sheep as my project as well a Photography, Wood Working, Graphic Arts, Cooking, Veterinarian Science, and Communications Project and showed the sheep and entered drawings and brownies that I'd made at the Lakeside Fair and Del Mar fair. I got a Special Award for a pencial sketch I did of a Big Horned Sheep Skull at the Del Mar Fair and a Special Award for a watercolor at the Lakeside Fair. I have 3 younger brothers, Mark and two younger twin brothers Scott & Steven. Were all 2 years apart from one another. I'm the oldest. We put a lot of grey hairs on our mother, Vicki. My dad is named Gene and I live with them now. I have a son named Levi who went to the Little League World Series for the West Region in 2015 and they came in 3rd overall in the U.S. bracket. He's a very special and talented ball player and a fine young man. I think he might even be that 1% that make it to the Mlb if he just keeps that great attitude and smile on his face and stays humble and most of all remembers its just a game and has as much fun playing the game of baseball as I have of watching him, he'll be just fine. I'm so proud and honored to be his dad.......
