“You’re the reason I see such beautiful things,” writes Louis to his sweetheart near the end of Have Faith.  A simple statement, but ravishing, and infinite in its reach.  And that pretty much sums up Louis and his irresistible words and images: immensely charming, for sure, and beguilingly humble, but suffused with passion, perception, and humanity.  You might not expect so much, at first—the primary colors, the plaintive scrawl, the pasted-up collage might seem like trifles—but then you’re caught by the heartbreaking eloquence of, say, a star bending toward earth, or startled by the insight of a phrase that then lingers in your mind for a month, or struck to the heart by a city skyline lonely for an absent love.  The world Louis lives in, and cheerfully invites us to share, is at once “dark and beautiful” and full of light, it’s sweet, funny, mournful, lonely, profound, and replete with the yearning and ardor and wonder that maybe you’d forgotten how to feel.  He is the reason we see such beautiful things.”
