    He went to France in 1903 at age 29. where he took on the fictionalized persona of "Wichita Bill." He studied at the Académie Julien under Jean-Paul Laurens and befriended fellow American artists George Luks and Richard E. Miller.

    Fringe (TV series)

    Fringe is an American science fiction television series created by J. J. Abrams, Alex Kurtzman, and Roberto Orci. It premiered on the Fox Broadcasting network on September 9, 2008, and concluded on January 18, 2013, after five seasons and 100 episodes. The series follows Olivia Dunham (Anna Torv), Peter Bishop (Joshua Jackson), and Walter Bishop (John Noble), all members of the fictional Fringe Division of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, based in Boston, Massachusetts, under the supervision of Homeland Security. The team uses fringe science and FBI investigative techniques to investigate a series of unexplained, often ghastly occurrences, which are related to mysteries surrounding a parallel universe.

    The series has been described as a hybrid of fantasy and procedural dramas and serials, influenced by film and television shows such as Lost, The X-Files, Altered States, and The Twilight Zone. The series began as a traditional mystery-of-the-week series and became more serialized in later seasons. Most episodes contain a standalone plot, with several others also exploring the series' overarching mythology.

    Fringe

    by: An Ocean Between Us

    I don’t know where to start
    Maybe from the night when
    You took my heart
    I saw you running away from me
    And then all crumbled down to you
    My battered heart
    Can’t take no more your eyes
    Spawn serpents of light
    The cage of my life is opening
    Unfolding memories of him
    Dead memories of him
    And I don’t know why
    I lost my mind
    Wash yourself your bloodstained eyes
    Don’t forget we’re born to die
    Will you see me in a dream
    I’ll see you in a dream
    In shape of ashes
    Burnt out skin
    We’ve lost ourselves
    Lost in a dream that turned
    That turned to nightmare
    This sickness is all I’m seeing
    Skies are blackening, pale your eyes
    Your hollow eyes
    Into the blue
    Nothing will ever be the same
    The pattern is almost complete
    As you are left to bleed
