Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before.

I am considered a bit of an art fag, if the truth should be told. I am also a bit of a lit snob. My all time favorite poem is by T. S. Elliot, the Hollow Men.

Arthur Rackham is the first artist I ever experienced with a dark and twisted bent. His illustrations of my Collected Brother's Grim completed the stories with unspeakable clarity.

I have spent a good bit of time at the Dali Museum in St. Pete Fl, and was privileged to see at the Ringling Museum of Art in Sarasota an amazing Spanish artist's works when they were on tour. I can't find his name in my head right now, damn dain brammage, but his body of work is incredibly bloody, dealing with events from the Spanish/American war...I wanna say his name is two syllables, and has a G in it...

I collect art from a variety of genres. I have some Toulouse LaTrac's that are just mind blowing in the few lines he uses to illustrate the female form, to the brilliant colors of his theatre posters, to how he with just a few brush strokes encompasses the human condition as he saw it.

I am also rather fond of Klei, and Escher.
