Farewell to H.R. Giger.

"My paintings seem to make the strongest impression on people who are, well, who are crazy. A good many people think as I do. If they like my work they are creative...or they are crazy."
                                                                                                   
                                                                                       - H.R. Giger, 1979


Giger's dark legacy can't be overestimated. Although his most well-known accomplishment was his crucial art design in 1979's "ALIEN", his lengthy career as a multimedia artist was so much more than just that. His bizarre, beautiful, disturbing genius will be missed.

Thanks for the tribute about this late master. While not a direct influence on my art, I appreciate his work and what he accomplished. :)
