Howard Finster Quotes
When I'm building my dome in my chapel, and I had a vision - I've worked on perpetual motion and I haven't never give it up yet. I still think it could be done, perpetual motion. I had a vision of a un resist able windmill.

Howard Finster was born in Valley Head, Alabama, USA. He was an American artist and pastor.

His creations include outsider art, naïve art, and visionary art. He first came to widespread notice in the 1980s with his album cover designs for R.E.M. and Talking Heads.
