On this page, you’ll find a list of artists, living and dead, whose work I have either derived direct inspiration from for my own work and/or whose material I find aesthetically resonant. Please note that this list is neither an exhaustive list of my “favorite” artists, nor a list of artists whose work I “recommend” on some basis of objective merit or friendly promotion, but rather an attempt to catalogue work which has informed my own, or which I think taps into some more pertinent spiritual layer of what I have attempted to express.
These artists I’ve organized into three more or less arbitrary categories according to the site’s formatting limitations. Please consider this index as a perpetual work-in-progress, with more artists’ names to be added over time.
