winter, there


When making the paintings for my book Images from the I Ching,
I was travelling in the USA & Mexico. Left is hexagram 63,
'Before Completion', I was at a friend's house in the woods near
Lincoln then, & came across many funny snow figures.
Right is the breathtaking Canyon de Chelly.
(Incidentally, there are new projects, just not for show yet)

Recently bought a copy of Lynd Ward's God's Man, with his
great b/w pictures, see more on a blog I like a lot.
The one I have (reprint) came out the week of the 1929 crash,
bad timing in one way, but he was so in tune with his times.
