  2. You have become part of the art.

    Sorry I have not been able to comment lately. Julie and I were in the Middle East for a few weeks, and keeping up with the office consumed all of our internet time.

  4. Okay. Good for Mr. Lewitt.

    Re your comment: I do have a memorial on a golf course. It's an old, beat-up ball, stuck in the trunk of a tree. Very fitting for me. :)

  17. A lot of this looks derivative from Ellsworth Kelly and Frank Stella, but with nice twists. I like the idea of punching a squishy hole in a Kelly look-alike. I heard Kelly give a talk once. He sounded pompous to the point of buffoonery.

  18. Reflective paint? Now, that's different. The first composition reminds me of a Rorschach.
