As-salaamu-alaikum, which means "hi"! I'm Nick. I'm into kitsch, kulture & surrealism.

To my followers,
It seems as though my Tumblr, within the past month or so, has become so overrun with spam, I can hardly bring myself to use it anymore. However, please check out  my new blog, guabanafisk.tumblr, which features some original artwork - assorted drawings and the like. It's just getting started, so there isn't a whole lot on it yet. But give it a look over. You might like it! And to those of you who have already started following, thank you! I really appreciate it. :)
