This story was categorically denied by Will Donkey, who claimed that these were two different troubled teenagers named Tina.  The story, nevertheless, persist.  Will's reputation for being a pathological liar, no doubt, plays a part in this.

Barf was an amateur sculptor: he melted a bunch of Barbies together with a blowtorch.  He was also an amateur painter, having made hundreds of 4th-rate copies of Gauguin.  And he was an amateur writer as well, having self-published a 10th-rate copy of Hemingway.

Naturally, Will Donkey followed in his mentor's footsteps by self-publishing a bunch of ineptly drawn comic books, trying his hand at splatter paintings, and fashioning sculptures out of his feces.
