William Blake
1757-1827

I love William Blakes paintings; I think there is so much expression in them. You can see the softness of love and the darkness of evil.
William Blake was a painter, engraver and poet. Blake expressed these visions of talent that approached genius and you know that genius creates insanity. He lived his life in poverty and died unrecognized. Today Blake is acclaimed, one of England’s great figures of art and literature and one of the most inspired and original painters of his time.
