CURIOS

All the graphics for the most part are hand drawn with graphite stylist, rapidograph technical pen or spray paint some collage and of course the assistance from a computer. The images when super viewed will show flaws and most of the images are purposely incomplete or drawn faintly to look faded and not newly minted out of a computer. I am a bit of a Luddite and an iconoclast so you may not like what you see and this has and always will be true “less is more.”

...I could count twenty such ...
Who strive ...
To paint a little thing like that you smeared
Carelessly passing with your robes afloat--
Yet do much less ... --so much less!
Well, less is more, Lucrezia: I am judged.
There burns a truer light of God in them,
In their vexed beating stuffed and stopped-up brain,
Heart, or whate'er else, than goes on to prompt
This low-pulsed forthright craftsman's hand of mine.
Their works drop groundward, but themselves, I know,
Reach many a time a heaven that's shut to me,
Enter and take their place there sure enough,
Though they come back and cannot tell the world.
... Somebody remarks
Morello's outline there is wrongly traced,
His hue mistaken; what of that? or else,
Rightly traced and well ordered; what of that?
Speak as they please, what does the mountain care?
Ah, but a man's reach should exceed his grasp,
Or what's a heaven for? ...
