"In the perception of art where a picture your son did in jail hangs on your wall as a proof that beauty is possible even in the most wretched; that someone who can make a beautiful thing can't be all bad; and that beauty has an ability to lift people as a Vermeer copy done in a tenement is surely the same as the greatest mural by some MFA. An object of art is an honest way of making a living, and this is much a different idea from the fancier notion that art is a scam and a ripoff. The bourgeoisie have, after all, made it a scam. But you could never explain to someone who uses God's gift to enslave that you have used God's gift to be free." - Rene Ricard, "The Radiant Child" ------------------------------------------------------------ -------------------------------------- I'm an artist. I prodominantly work in charcoal on paper. I have a thing for faces, people, and anatomy.. so i draw them. I'm outgoing, spontaneous, eccentric, and love to laugh. I love learning new things, open mindedness, meeting people, good tunes, jammin out acoustics.
