Finally, the moment everybody has been waiting for.

(drum roll, fanfares and dancing, naked virgins....)
"The Shy Stick Insect Hunter Magazine"
is done, yipppeeeeyyy.

Now I can even annoy all those people without computers.
The great thing is, that when you hand out the magazine to someone, they have to at least look at it.
No escape, he he he.

This event also marks the end of my commercial sabbatical.
That means I am willing to part with my art works from now on (for a hefty price of course) and I will offer all kinds of funny Schwag on the website.
See details at : http://dont-touch-my.com/schwag/
I took a commercial sabbatical for about a year to make sure that whatever I produce during that period will be totally free from any commercial thoughts or influences.
It's kinda like fasting but with money instead of food.

The result is as you can see on my website and in the magazine.
It is still me and since it is not much different from what I used to do, I am glad to see that I apparently have never been very much influenced by commercial thinking.

No commercial potential.
At least one thing that I have in common with : Frank Zappa.

This Magazine is a tribute to my father Manfred Maluche who always supported my artistic ambitions and who would have gotten a real kick out of reading it.
I like to thank my Mom, Barbara von Schroeder who luckily still supports my artitstic ambition.
Of course special thanks to my lovely wife Nena, my kids Donray and Sunyee for putting up with me and my unorthodox approach to life.
Thanks also to my assitants, Lorna and Sonja for all the hard work they put into this magazine.
And let’s not forget my dear friends, Dick, Gordon, Christian, Roland, Christoph, Bob and Mark for their inspiration.
