Henry Darger, oh Henry Darger!
How delighted I was to stumble on this incredible artist via the candy pages of Lula.

His story tangled my mind with it's twists and turns. It is like a bittersweet cupcake baked with confusion, amazement, mystery and fucking beautiful drawings.

If you have a moment, read his wiki entry it's fascinating. He endlessly inspires me. I'm still hoping for one of his books.

It's dark, it's innocent, it's sweet. Truly a romantic story of a reclusive man. He endlessly inspires me.
