I am an artist living in the Coastal Bend (along the gulf, for those not familiar with south Texas jargon). I paint and sculpt... I have also been known to dabble in photography, and write.
Some examples of my art can be seen at: http://gkgriffin.wordpress.com
Written in response to something I saw on Dan's myspace page (reached via The Bohemian Feline)...
academic poetry
pure oxymoron
poetry is anything but academic
academic cannot stretch to poetry
suffer not, but regard them with cool understanding
they grope for that which they may only aspire to
life is filled with far more suck than silk
love is shittiest with the one you truly love
and poetry is the creaking bone
singing aloud
true poet - you have lived, loved, sucked - and rarely through the silk
