Wallace Wood

After trivializing McQueen's suicide, I automatically started thinking about Wallace Wood's suicide. I picked up a few of his biographies from the library recently :

I find Wood's style to be antiseptic and asexual but beautiful. Sure he draws pretty girls and creepy, drippy aliens but his line work and black spotting is just too perfect to elicit any guttural response from me. I mean this as a compliment- if I had pursued a career in the arts, I would have aspired for this type of style.
