Ross H. Pollette Figurative Paintings

Ross H. Pollette is a designer and author from San Francisco, California. Pollette writes under the pseudonyms, Max West and Ross X. He frequently designs the covers for his books. He describes himself as a designer, writer, composer, former CEO of Max West Enterprises who lives and works in San Francisco, California. He likes raising carnivorous plants, beer and cast metal sculptures. He has been in wars, but doesn't approve of them; is against time and 'consensus reality', is for creativity and human dignity. Talking about his life’s choices, he says, “Choosing 'art' as a life course isn't as much fun as fighting a giant squid with a harpoon or going to an alternate reality and killing your parents but by the time I got here all the good jobs were taken, and signs off as  Love, Max West and Ross X (split personalities of R.H. Pollette).”
