here is a more useful way for me to show things i find inspiring

i made a separate blog.

this is going to be my work, that one will be other people's work. what an unnecessary yet alluring spreading out of myself over the internet.

more influences

i've never been one for names per se. images that stick in my mind are often stronger than looking at a body of work, or an exhibition catalog. i'm always bad at remembering who makes the things i like. so forgive me if i don't have a cohesive group of artists i can point to & say "these ones." i'm more likely to post old photographs, snapshots, sketches.
though i guess most of these are from more "professional" artists.
