"Chairman with his argyle feet off" A dreamlike room of objects that don't relate to one another. It means absolutely nothing to anyone but me (and I'm not even sure that I understand it!) A pure surrealist notion. Not a drawing, actually, but scratched onto a metal (zinc) plate, then set in acid to burn deeper. Finally it was inked and sent through an etching press. Only two artist's proofs remain. and to view a color pencil sketch intended for an oil painting or linoleum block printing. Eventually it became the etching that it is today. etching 15" x 12" 1973?
