Hej! I am Brian Michael May Marx Gibson, an Ohio born artist living on the island of Samsø in Denmark.
I make music with a variety of instruments, some of which I build myself. I write songs and screenplays and digitize my drawings so I can machine embroider them onto felt. I run a local art shop with coffee, tea and homemade ispinde in an old butcher shop where I live. It’s called Rustfelt. I love to perform my music live and also play improvised music with Folk På Samsø, sing in the Samsø Kirkekor and play guitar/sing in a rock & soul cover band called Onsdays! I work as a video professional/editor/color grader and have recently expanded to offer workshops in my varying areas of interest. :)
