Re: Whomever is your favourite artist?

I'd already posted many of my favorites when I was more active on here. Multiple times now I've tried to post pics by Suguru Tanaka because his work strikes me as incredibly similar, albeit in a strictly visual sense, to that of Ligotti, Kafka, and Burroughs. Sigh, I'll just have to show the tumblr instead, my Mac doesn't interact well with this site.

Seriously, scroll through those for a bit, tell me they don't send some weird juices flowing.

Re: Whomever is your favourite artist?

I must gush on this group for just a moment if I may. Whether on this post or similar ones where the discussion turns to literature, music, film, etc., I am constantly being introduced to new artists that I may have never heard of were it not for this forum's members. I sincerely cherish all the minds Here as they have enriched my horizons greatly. My humblest thanks to you all.

Re: Whomever is your favourite artist?

At this point, my favourite artists are those i can talk to.
The artists i share a studio building with at locatieZ are incredibly smart interlocutors that teach me a lot about making art, even though i may or may not personally like their work (which in itself is something i learned). The artists whose work i have been incredibly lucky to encounter in the 11 years of running Baracca : BARACCA. The gents and ladies over at the EATEN BY DUCKS & les cadavres exquises

Live ones. Breathing specimens. Citizens. Humans.
Many of the other, more distant 'favourite' artists, i have internalized to such an extent that i really wouldn't be able to say if William Blake is my favourite artist or if my interpretation of him is my favourite artist, for example.

John Coulthart, love his Lovecraftian work, but just a great all-round artist.

Re: Whomever is your favourite artist?

I'm not knowledgeable about art, but I really like Peter Booth's paintings. They're incredibly, perversely beautiful.

Your fall should be like the fall of mountains. But I was before mountains. I was in the beginning, and shall be forever. The first and the last. The world come full circle. I am not the wheel. I am the hand that turns the wheel. I am Time, the Destroyer. I was the wind and the stars before this. Before planets. Before heaven and hell. And when all is done, I will be wind again, to blow this world as dust back into endless space. To me the coming and going of Man is as nothing.
