The great mystery is not that we should have been thrown down here at random between the profusion of matter and that of the stars; it is that from our very prison we should draw, from our own selves, images powerful enough to deny our nothingness.
André Malraux, Man's Fate (1933)

I am Douglas Pexa, based out of Minneapolis, MN. I do a lot of different things including but not limited too painting, drawing, book binding, altered postcards, altered books, stencil art, zine publication and much more. I am also one of the co-founders of The Figure Drawing Factory a online drawing group where artist (beginner to advanced) and models (armature to professional and of all shapes and sizes) come together to do “group projects” and share the experiences of the artist and the model. A formal bio will be up soon for more about me as a person and artist.
