| ..eyes closed on a bright day in the summer a distinct image appeared where the sun should be....it had two half circles with dots on either side...like two poeple facing each other eye to eye or perhaps a single face looking at us....relationships? human interaction?....a vivid image that remained vidid without the aid of pencil and paper.... a logo, an abstract expression....a memory?, a hope?...a simple asthetic?....later to become an etching called "Attikus"..someday to be revised without shading in the face, as it initially appeared in the minds eye.. | ||
