I joke that I’m a photographer because I can’t paint or play the guitar. There’s only a small bit of truth to that, and occasionally I’d like to point out a few things I’ve found in other mediums that blow me away. When I first came across Mark Ryden’s work I had to pick my lower jaw up off the floor. There’s a realism to his paintings that I’ve just not seen before, yet they exist in a world of fantasy that is so original, it could only come from the mind of truly unique artist.
