The artist hanging at my shop atm is an old black lady working in a black folk art style. there is about 10x the amount of memory and emotion in her work as anything that I've ever had up before. I fucking love it. Other people come in and say that it ok looks like grade school art. I don't give a fuck. Her work is great in my opinion. I'll post some shitty cellphone pics of it tomorrow if I have a chance. Real feeling and memory is not present in most art. Fuck elegance, real emotion is beyond precious. It means more than anything.
