PxKaes: The opening line had me from the jump, maybe I’m a little morbid or emo or bipolar or hell who knows? All those things rolled up into one at times. Andy’s look and honesty about what he viewed as art is respectable and the struggle and journey to get to where his art is at today is very inspiring…Plus his pieces go for cake
