    Hard to get a feel, and critical assessment, of his work on this video but I thought the bathroom was the best due to its simplicity and immersive quality. I quite liked the fish painting as well. Heaven and hell didn't suck me in the way heaven and hell should. Interesting entry point, Abstract Expressionism , but not really my thing. I like Helen Frankenthaler and Lee Krassner's work from that period/ genre, but with the exception Pollock, the rest, not so much. Great to pursue your passion and dream though.

    one thing I would like to say is there is a huge difference between art 'enthusiasts' and the real refinery of mad artists, especially the ones who truly delve in the manic realm of their subconscious. Only a true fellow artist can look at work like Gary's and say 'spot on, my friend, spot on. You hit the nail on the head." He's managed to combine the essence of many brilliant artists throughout the ages while still hanging onto his true authenticity... He captures the madness of serenity and the stillness of chaos. It's utter brilliance. I'm super inspired!
