DT: “This painting appeared on the cover of Human Greed's first album 'Consolation'… It's somewhat mysterious content alludes to Victoria Park in Newhaven, Edinburgh… I'm deeply connected to Newhaven, Trinity and north Edinburgh… It is a very special part of the city… Big life events… frightening scenarios and many, many tears… My kind of 'spiritual centre' and it informs much of my imagination… Based on actual events… (See DeBosch)… Can I be any more obscure?

Consolation is a 'female' painting… the yellow ribbon… the birthday cake… more pictures about cats babysitting chicks… The moon looks pleased and that litterbin in the background is significant… If Louis Wain was ever wrestled to the ground by Leith Police whilst howling at the moon…his mind an inferno of sex and death… well this is it…What more can I possibly say?”
