"You can KNOW SOMETHING ABOUT ARTISTS
     by the things they create.

     By studying the works of
this One I can tell --
  • this One likes to work real small
  • this One likes lots of detail
  • this One draws from chemistry, biology, physics, and neuroscience
  • this One has a thing for social interaction
  • this One uses an array of color
  • this One is clever, skilled, precise, consistent, systematic,  and mathematical
  • this One employs corollaries, reason, and logic
  • this One has an ongoing carbon based project
  • this One is thrilled to work with proteins
  • that One likes puzzles
  • he exhibits forethought and knowledge
  • she is poetic, charming, musical, deliberate, experienced, playful, intelligent, and like to make new recipes."

          "LOOKING AT A PIECE OF ART will not tell me ----

  • how many coffee breaks this artist took or about her diet
  • what model of car he prefers
  • which limbs were used to arrange the materials
  • whether she wears glasses
  • what languages she is fluent in
  • whether he has offspring
  • much time he spent dreaming up the idea
  • what the prototypes might have looked like
  • who she met while on vacation."      
  "All this attention to detail that artists exhibit REMINDS ME
  • that I am being THOUGHT OF by another
  • my time ON DISPLAY is not finished
  • I am someone's TREASURE
  • I am DESIRABLE and SOUGHT AFTER
  • and I am CHERISHED by a LOVER."
