I worked on this painting Saturday after I visited the The Joseph Regenstein Library  and became very inspired...

One of the top five libraries on the planet earth.

University of Chicago campus is beautiful too.

my girlfriend is an alumni there, her names Echo:

She urged me to save a bee that we simutaniously spotted trying to fly off of the top of the pond water, probably confused by all the EMF in the airwaves... :)

The The Joe and Rika Mansueto Library library looks like a space ship. I didnt get a picture inside the space. No bookshelves though, all books are under the floor and a robot commanded by a librarian at the desk fetches the books...

 

The old library where i got to see all the books was the inspiring one. Ill have a lot of quotes from art books i found there to accompany my work

"The dimension that counts for the

creative person is the Space he creates

within himself. This innerspace is closer

to the infinite than the other, and it is the

privilege of a balanced mind . . . to be as

aware of inner space as he is of outer 

space. If he ventures in one, and 

neglects the other, man falls off his

horse and the equilibrium is broken."
