and Clinock touches us……thanks again John!
Prego, il mio amico, prego…
Some time ago I needed to look up definition of iconoclastic to understand better. Timothy Leary then came to mind. Or is that out of mind?
Tim was an iconoclast alright…perhaps he is now an icon?
Naw, he was not Russian Orthodox.
Thank you John.
You are most welcome Liam.
And this art touches the viewer, and the viewer passes it on to the child. 🙂 An endless touch.
May the circle be unbroken xx
Welcome moments of reflection. A gentle post, matched nicely by your followers’ comments John.
