It swims in the wind. I will try and get a photo of the back, which is an anti-fish. The main structure is made like armor, with each individual scale wired to four neighbors. I never weighed it, but it's heavy enough to knock a turtle to the ground (lower to the ground than a turtle normally is. ) A girl said I should paint it, and I might just do that. Or not.

something in me orby made me want to say that if I was Basquiat I would paint some words across your lorax like you were some kinda Warhol. but then i found this popular art that satisfied the urge. 1 lumop or two?

perhaps that is too obscure a reference. In the movie about Basquiat, there is a scene where he is with Warhol and Andy is showing him new works; Basquiat takes up a brush and paints some words on Warhols new piece. they discuss it.

i think about it a lot, and when i first saw it, if i had been Warhol I would have gone balistic. Warhol just rolled with wave though. Now when I see art with words, particularly words seemingly contrary to the image, Basquiat pops in my head.

about Basquiat and his art. >> Jean-Michel Basquiat - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

about the movie.>> Basquiat - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The poster image I put up above epitomizes my impressions of a Basquiat/Warhol cooperation. If you burn the Lorax print Orby, wil you first write "turtle was here" on it? How bout that cup now?

i hadn't specifically thought about actually owning a piece of yours. :giggle: i have to mull that over with all it entails for a reclusive minimalist. an exchange of pieces between us would satisfy art though. mmmmm....musing....mulling...ooooommmmmm....

now here is what i started with more or less that if you make a piece and it's one you plan to burn then i can participate vicariously if you paint words on the piece right before the match that brings me.
