That's how I would describe your site. Really cool. The drawings, reminiscent of a film noir dream, are unavoidably compelling to anyone who likes the gothic, the surreal, and the neo-abstract realism that flows through your aesthetic.Which is to be expected by anyone that knows you. I'm sorry it took me a minute to comment. I wanted to say a word about the pre-raphaelites. Suffice to say that your favorites are mine also. I would only add that I love the granddaddy (link with the past) proto-pre-raphaelite, William Blake alot (Sir Blakealot) and Burne-Jones (although he has a sort of what I'll call a stylized realism to his work. I have also been listening to the ambient CD you sent me, and like it mucho. Dogs barking in the rain cheer up weirdos like me. We'll get to the recording, I haven't forgotten, I've just been focusing on other areas at the moment.<BR/><BR/>Love - RandyR.
