Well paint Kafka's cheeks red

Kafka has a really captivating face to me. Maybe it's because of his writings, and the fact that so many are unfinished and that he wanted them to be burned. Maybe this adds a certain amount of mystery to his persona and face.  Either way, here are some pictures of Kafka.







A really great read. A visual 'romp' through Kafka's life and stories. 


My friend Luc does some really great visual art, and often uses collage in his work. Believe it or not, below is an example of some of his work using collage. Here is a screen printed image of Kafka's head atop Lincoln's body. Lovin' the finished product. 


"I have the true feeling of myself only when I am unbearably unhappy"

Fan of Kafka? Me too. See The Metamorphosis
Thanks Luc!
