Alex Grey

Alex Grey is an artist who produces are unlike any other I have seen before.  He produces spiritual and psychedelic art that is very intriguing.  He has produced artwork to be used in albums for a number of musicians including The Beastie Boys, Tool, and Nirvana.  His artwork makes use of multiple perspectives at the same time, much like that of the cubist movement, as well as making use of symmetrical optical illusions.  He does this all while making use of a wide array of colors and perspective techniques, making his art mesmerizing.  This also makes the intended subject sometimes ambiguous, which might be Grey's intention.

  2. This is really bizarre but interesting. I really like how he blends the colors together in his work
