I wouldn’t have graduated from SFAI without him. He cared & understood.
In 73, after the photography department failed me, he suggested I switch to sculpture, where, he assured me, I’d be understood.

Drawing Upon
Drawing is the first writing
Drawing is the discovery of symbols
It takes at least 2 generations for a technology to become creative; compatible with the visual mind
Technology of drawing changes, yet drawing grows stronger, is able to adapt faster than the needs of other art forms
Art requires technology take a human form, become compatible, first with the artist, then the other.
The paper is never empty, the canvas never blank
Drawing is evolving into purely mental activity.
