Yeah, I know he does work for tool. But have any of you ever picked up his book Transfigurations? In my opinion, there is no competition
when it comes to this guy. |

If you're ever in NYC and you like his work, you must check out the Chapel of Sacred Mirrors. It's really an experience. |

I am making a trip later this year and that is one of my main goals.
I understand he is a humble guy and not one of those "arty farty"
snobs. His shit is mindblowing. |

I think I met him once. Nothing more than a handshake and a hello though.
I do know most of his newer shit is done by apprentices and is just signed by him and sold for ridiculous prices. He outlines it, they paint it...he sells it. This true which a lot of big artists, including Giger. The art world is a bunch of bull. |
