According to his web site, Basil offers the following quote:

During the heyday of the vingage era fright-film, I excelled in painting monster portraits. Cinephiles instantly took to the emotion and pathos - these fearsome faces elicited in fiery colors. I love color.


After my formal education, I studied at various art schools in Washington, D.C., and New York. I think for the next 12 years, off and on, I was absorbing liquid ideas and applications like a sponge.

 Now, as a professional artist, I can look back at perhaps two thousand paintings and say, "I think I must have done it all." From book and magazine covers, to editorials, movie and theater posters, to portraits, murals and even ad agency work - you name it. Sometimes it seems a lonely life, that of an artist, but I wouldn't be anything else. I don't regret one minute of it.
