n. I've had a lifetime love affair with art. I love works that make me feel love, hate, disgust, and arousal all at once. I am a fan of lowbrow, or pop surrealism if you will. Many of the artists in this style fill the aforementioned emotional need. Visual art may be my first love, but music is still very special to me. I have eclectic taste and try to avoid disliking any particular genre. Each has its bad artists, but there are also many underappreciated artists out there that need support. I also have other interests that are rather varied: voodoo lore, reading, making up songs to pass the time, painting, Southern culture, stencil-making, hand lettering, smiling, people watching, trying to make people laugh, and cooking.
I also appreciate the complexities of David Lynch AND good bourbon.
