Whyisbox

"Now, what's this all about?"

Stopped from painting on street walls, no good at drawing bowls of stupid apples, bored of being ridiculed for drawing words and not pictures in art classes and continuously told "doodling will make you go blind" by the grown-ups; life on planet The Boy Has Lots Of Artistic Potential was not looking too rosy for Jules' brain. Life in fact was looking so intolerable that it exchanged its inner sketch pad for an inner Stylophone® and hopped on the first ship to Waster Teenage Rave DJ, one of several dysfunctional moons.

Years on now and terribly poor, but socially awesome, Jules' brain moved back to planet The Boy Has Lots Of Artistic Potential and, to its overwhelming joy, discovered people now liked to look at doodles and words and wall art! "All praise the Lord of the Internet & Global Social Networking" it cried and set off to build a new home there.

Whyisbox is that place; a new home to Jules' brain! Please excuse the mess.
