Troubled Disappointment


"There is also a troubled insouciance in his characters despite the appearance of living out a seeming fantasy – the clothes, the looks and lounging in the midst of a quasi-orgy fest – there is something fragile and complex about his characters," said Paul Cochran of Aishti Magazine.

I love art and culture. I saw this art on thebobblog and it reminded me of a few other amazing artists: Eric Fischl, David Salle, David Lachapelle, Paul Émile Chabas and Andres Serrano. I know it sounds cheesy but the works of these artists really embody how I would want my art to be. I don't want to get all emo, but they are just so stunning and speak to disillusioned youth. Very F. Scott Fitzgerald for modern day.
