Let me tell you a little something about BLACK, mr. "WHITE...SUPREMECIST"

You can’t get any leverage out of a single page of art. Believe me, I’ve tried. Art is a continual process. Doing just 1 page doesn’t reflect well on you as an artist. Black and Dark Pages look better than White Pages, both technically and aesthetically. This is how I prefer to do things. Take it or leave it. Nothing’s going to change this, my love for Black. I am part Goth after all. Black pages appeal to intelligent, mature, and sophisticated readers who like dark and macabre things, and other innovative creative visuals. White pages lack not only maturity, experience, and wisdom, but also age and creativity. I know with most white pages I’m not going to get anything truly adult. White pages are for children. Black compositions are for mature adults and have a sense of sophistication and timelessness. Black pages aren’t just meant to portray death and horror. They also represent wisdom and creativity. White may be “pure and cute”, but at least black has some experience behind it. And no one’s going to sell me a counter opinion any other way either. Far as I’m concerned my mind is already made up. Black is better than White. Fuck white. Fuck purity.

One of my unconventional aspects has to do with my usage and philosophy on color, or more specifically, Power Colors. I believe Black can make just as much of a healing color as white does. Most people, when they think healer, they think white, and when they think evil, they think black. I see it in reverse much of the time. To me the purity of white, there’s something fake and untrustworthy about it. White’s initial innocent impression can easily be used to deceive and lie and exploit trust. Black is a constant. Hardly ever does it change or get darkened. Black absorbs all, including pain. This sounds like Goth Poetry, I know—not that there’s anything wrong with Goth Poetry—but it truly does express how I feel about White and Black. Black gives me a sense of power, and therefore paves and pioneers the way through fear to a sense of acceptance, peace, and comfort. Power cravings aren’t always bad. Power represents stability and security in some ways, and therefore has a strong potential to be used for Healing and by Healers. White isn’t the only color that purifies people. Black can revitalize and sooth.
