WHO IS THE GOLDEN HAIR GOTH?

WHO IS THE GOLDEN HAIR GOTH? †

My name is Jake Weekley. I’m a graphic designer hailing from Chattanooga, TN but I’m also, a Christian, a punk, an adrenaline junkie, a music-lover, a film critic, and a hippie-looking goth. My personality and my story are complex and unique, just like yours! My nickname “Golden Hair Goth” is a combination of my happy-go-lucky attitude and my fascination with all things macabre. And of course, I love consuming horror, true crime, and dystopian books, movies, and every other kind of medium.

I believe “there is nothing new under the sun,”so I take inspiration the weird world around us; punk, funk, jazz, and hardcore music; traditional style woodcuts; horror films and books; Frank Frazetta, Saul Bass, Shawn Keri, Suicide, The Stooges, David Bowie, and Tom Huck (to name just a few artists); and the Bible. I believe art is the single-most impactful way of telling a story, bringing people together, and inspiring the masses, and in the future, I hope to use my design skills to serve the community around me.
