This old watercolor I did is one of my favorites. I have the original lying around somewhere. I need to get all of those together in an organized fashion. The image you see here is enlarged. The original is on a 4" x 6" glossy photo paper. I believe in the postermodernist view that only the reproduction of the original art which is to say the simulation of it can be real after we consider that the nature of reality or truth which are just two blunt words inadequate to the task of conveying the complex implications nestled within our tacit understanding that we perceive the universe around us through the inverted lens of a bicameral mind adherent to split mind objectification, in other words most people only see a reproduced image of these great works of art and though it goes without stating here that said originals often exceed our capacity to process lest we stand before them to behold their transformative glory in its essence, nonetheless it remains that as Baudrillard has pointed out, what is reality anymore but a long lost foregone conclusion, I'm j/k I said that.
