I can’t help wonder how an artist doesn’t get lost doing such immense detail work.

But then it must be the details that make it enjoyable to do.

Your art style and skill goes to a level seldom seen here, friggin awesome work!

Sometimes I am indifferent to it, other times I am painfully aware of how insane I am. So there's no question about it that I get lost in the shit I am doing half the time.

Of course you're right though, geeking out on the details in order to imbue the construct with life is half the draw for whatever reason.

I am seldom satisfied with my work, so it is nice to hear, when others here like it. Thank you.

You know, looking through your gallery again, I'd say I am going to watch in return.

heh, thanks. I take my time on my shit and one could say my approach is unorthodox, so it sticks with some people who see it. From my point of view, I wouldn't say I am terribly skilled, my mind just goes to really unusual places, and I can recall it in fairly good detail. I am actually not really taken by real technical or flashy-type art of most kinds in general. I prefer it to be feverish and erratic and raw, you know, look like indecipherable sigils graffiti'd onto the side of some ruined building in the wake of a disaster, something like that. In some musical circles, an excess of technical showmanship is referred to as a 'wankfest'. A fitting term. No, I prefer shit to be primal and gritty. So cheers to you, if it feels rewarding then stick with I'd say.

Hi Wiley!!!!!!!
I dropped off the face of the earth and was digging around for a photo of an old friend. Hopped on here hoping to find it and thought I'd check in on you.

THIS IS AMAZING and I really miss seeing you and your art in person.  I still have that amazing mask you gave me. Hope all is well. My new email is abrammayhem@live.com

Drop me a line sometime. I'd love to hear from you.

Well, you sound apologetic for disappearing. Personally, I don't see why more people don't try it. I myself barely maintain a presence on the Earth's face. More or less, I've burrowed beneath its surface.

Things are flexible enough, but I hate the fucking title bars nevertheless. I like either dead silence or fucking chaos. Writing does nothing for me anymore because I've no choice but to write basically the way I paint, that is I start with something and then it grows and mutates endlessly in aftermath, and before you know it I have a Salvador Dali-sized title that won't fit in the fucking bar space. Perhaps it'd be more healthy to just start naming everything I come up with Untitled 1,2,3, and so on. But this just isn't what goes on inside me. Three decades deep in this life, and I see less and less merit in forcing things that feel unnatural. 

I can write to you occasionally. Again, I'll lash out at any forcing of things though. Still, I understand, it was the friends you had when we knew each other who harbored that useless quality, not you. That is, the forcing of things that aren't really there. For me, socializing is exactly like everything else people make up. Basically, it doesn't exist and there's little or no point in bending over backwards for something so petty. Money doesn't grow on trees, why, because in spite of the false importance people place on it, it doesn't actually exist. Not once have I walked across a large tract of land and noticed lines of longitude or political boundaries distinguished amongst the rocks and earth as they are on maps. Why, because they don't actually exist. Same thing with socializing. Frankly, I am kind of locking horns with someone right now, and its taking up more of my time than I'd otherwise prefer, I'll not say more here, perhaps not at all. But, yeah, that's where much of my focus rests now.

So you see correspondences will likely be few and far between, I won't be stingy though. Just the same, I might not make any sense when I 'do' write, so there'll be no real loss. Anyway, no need to take the silence personally. Until then, when it is broken...

Thank you, its not as I'd hoped it would turn out, but whatever is. Either way, when I start a piece I tend to return again and again, details accumulate.

 Thanks, you too. Unfortunately I only complete an average of two a year, but I am always working on something.
