WILLIAM KRUG

Through my work, I try to clarify my views on world events and culture. It's an egocentric exercise that's therapeutic, entertaining and influenced by my fondness for Absurdist Philosophy My art cheers me up though I make no claims for the impact of my art on others. The planet may not be habitable in another twenty years, governments are becoming increasingly fascist, attention spans are in decline, and the national business is war profiteering. So mocking the Zeitgeist comes easy.

I employ traditional oil painting techniques and call my aesthetic "Nihilist Frivolity."
