His work is provocative and disturbing when looked at up close. It's the stuff of dreams, or of nightmares. The thing that draws me in about this artist is his abnormality. He's able to put himself in his work and make it come alive. I think that is a necessary key with every artist; that they can't be afraid of what they might produce. They have to let their imagination unfold into something that can be appreciated by the rest of teh world.Sunday, October 11, 2009
