Bad Quote by Noah Reid
“David Shrigley is somewhere between stand-up comedy and cave paintings. He does these brilliant esoteric, simple drawings - you might even say bad drawings. Part of it is that you feel like you could do the drawing, but you haven't done the drawing - you haven't found that moment of truth. There's something incredible about the simplicity of it.”
