In late 1999, I asked Dion Terry, whom I’d met when we were about to open the Congo Internet Cafe back in 1995, to explore some digital art. We were busy with Alienzoo and Dion, like so many artists, was in need of paying gigs. I wanted digital stuff as I felt that the results with software distinguished things so they’d resonate with the exploding phenomenon called the Internet. This work, titled Peace Pipe, still stands out as one of my all-time favorite images created by Dion.

I was in love with Dion’s use of color as he was learning how to paint with Photoshop; sadly, he didn’t love the medium as much.

This was a sketch that never progressed further than this, as far as I know.
