The Chapel of Art on mon 2 feb 04


Very occasionally you see work and a little voice whispers to
you, "This is so perfect, you will never achieve this standard,
so why even try to emulate it? Give up! Pack up! Go do something
else...!" I suppose it is what Satan whispers into receptive
ears... "Get thee behind me"...

Anyway, I just had to share this even though it is off-topic...
http://www.kurtwenner.com An example of the above "sentiment"...
This is truly amazing work! Cannot get over the fact that THESE
ARE ALL FLAT PAVEMENTS!!! Just shows what you can get up to in a
climate where the sun always shines!

Also another example of English "diversification". What we would
call a "pavement artist" is apparently called a "street painter"
in the USA? Whatever he calls himself, Mr. Wenner obviously
learned an awful lot in Italy...

Sincerely

Janet Kaiser
