LEVEL 13: The Mime or The Mime Chamber (I had also called it Midnight the Clown): a dream I had of a clown that walks into and out of a room shaped like a Yin-Yang. His hat is shaped like a pagoda, which is oh-so-significant: the immortal within the transient also originally called 'God winking'.



Generalize about the best examples, and we can create an entire universe that is Sublime!

Hyper-Cubic Drawings


Something I have not posted here is the prevalence of ink drawing to my concept of Motist art. In fact this is where it began. As an example, here are three recent Motist ink drawings, titled "Puzzle Bloom", "Snickety" and "Tangle":



Puzzle Bloom, 5 X 7" unframed, ink on acid-free paper.



Snickety, 5 X 7" unframed, ink on acid-free paper.



Tangle, 5 X 7" unframed, ink on acid-free paper.

[Snickety--middle--is recently for sale at Jojo's Cafe in New Haven for $40 framed]
