mANVIL

"I think you should make a radical change in your lifestyle and begin to boldly do things you may previously never have thought of doing, or been too hesitant to attempt. So many people live with unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism. All of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality the basic core of a man's living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun. If you want to get more out of life, you must lose your inclination for monotonous security. You just have to have the courage to turn against your habitual lifestyle and engage in unconventional living. Don't hesitate or allow yourself to make excuses. Just get out and do it. You will be very, very glad that you did."


-Found out about this guy through my cousin, who knows him. The above is a quote from him on his Flickr. Also, he's Baltimore based, fuck yeah.

Why do I always want to put my face on cool textures...


This is just shy of being sort of contrived and forgettably strange. But it's not, and I love that it walks that line.

I'm very interested in the idea of creating a place for the viewer of the art that is its own reality, and changes within itself...
