Here's another:


Sorta...not exactly...i forget kinda...you know, you do a bunch a work and weeks, months, and years  roll by...you don't even look the same no more, and even stranger, you don't even think the same



 

 Let's assume it is Monday morning,surely the most morningish morning of the week, when the scent of Monday mornings is excellently disseminated in the in the bookkeeping departments of large banks.

 In such a hall there are, down aisles, about ten to fifteen rows of desks to pass in review; at each twin desk works a pair of people.  One is accustomed to speak  of a pair of shoes, so why not now and then speak of a pair of people?  -Robert Walser

Now of course things have changed I think, haven't they? Why we don't think of humans that way any more, right?  We sure don't think of Robert Walser anymore. 

We now insist on corporate teams of smart studious engineers:  In the great modern tome of literature "Modern Plastics Encyclopedia"  from 1946 is a great discussion of Furan Resins of course produced by the Furetone Plastics and Chemicals Company with insightful and dynamic contributions by the chemicals department of Quaker Oats:  They say that "articles molded of Furtone are easily released from molds, have good physical and electrical properties plus excellent surface finishes.

This inly one sentence from a 1673 page book which weighs 55. I 345 lbs.  Take that Mr Walser, you uneducated German dropout...!

Well I'm thinking of selling some of my  paintings though I haven't yet figured out how much to sell them for nor which size I wish to sell...it seems to boring to figure out I guess...

Unfortunately, most of you have already driven four or five hours to get here and then spent the entire time here taking photographs...and of course you already have paintings already...!

  This is one of the paintings from 2007 --a ways a go I suppose...but I like this one and in fact didn't give a thought about when it was painted, wow! fourteen years ago!  ...

Stone Hinge

The moon is up, and yet it is not night,
The sun as yet disputes the day with her.
  --Lord Byron

This came out of the vault.  There are thousands, I guess, of paintings in the vault.  I don't know what decade let alone what year it's from.


6x19 inks,watercolor...This is the toughest paper I ever found, dry and thick, weird...never found anything like it...
