Heh. I'm more disappointed with his early and middle works. I love that he has created some things which a lot of people enjoy looking at and thinking. I love a lot of the ideas behind his work. And I love his mustache! But looking at his early work there's some question as to whether he actually cheated his way through school by copying other art and calling it his own (I knew people that did that while I struggled to get a grade. Grrrrr.) Then in his independent and growing development of surrealism, while they are compelling imagery, they are also poor in composition and technique of presentation. I do like several of his Classical period works quite a bit though.
And I can't ever think of him without seeing him staring wide eyed into the camera, twirling his moustache, and saying "Daaaaaali!". -Kevin ----- Original Message ----- From: "Larry C.
