Cy Twombly

My line is childlike but not childish. It is very difficult to fake.. to get that quality you need to project yourself into the child's line. It has to be felt.

Pantheonic rotunda. (1999 photo) "In the project for the University of Virginia, the first state university in the country, Jefferson built the Pantheon, at two-thirds of the scale, at the head of a rising mall flanked by interlinked columnar pavilions. This Rotunda housed the library, while in the pavilions, representing individual disciplines, professors lived and held their classes." — Spiro Kostof. A History of Architecture. p625.

William Shakespeare

In the garden named after him, in Huntington Library and Gardens.

Located between the Huntington Art Gallery and the Virginia Steele Scott Gallery, the Shakespeare Garden includes many plants and flowers mentioned in Shakespeare’s plays including poppies, pansies, violets, pinks, carnations, rosemary, daffodils, irises, roses, columbines, and marigolds, in tribute to the Library collection of early editions of Shakespeare. A small plaque next to each of the plants quotes the relevant line or verse: “It was the nightingale, and not the lark, That pierc'd the fearful hollow of thine ear; Nightly she sings on yond pomegranate-tree...” (Romeo and Juliet, Act III, Scene V); “There's rosemary, that's for remembrance....” (Hamlet, Act IV Scene V), etc. Some of the less obvious Shakespearean plants in the garden include wild thyme, garlic, woodbine, grape, crab-apple, myrtle, sweet violet, lemon balm, fern, and holly.

Philadelphia Water Works and Art Museum.

from my trip in May taken at sunrise

The Fairmount Water Works in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania was the first municipal waterworks in the United States. Designed in 1812 by Frederick Graff and built between 1819 and 1822 it operated until 1909, winning praise for its design and becoming a popular tourist attraction. It was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976 and is once again in the process of winning back visitors, having now opened an Interpretive Center to aid in understanding the waterworks' purpose and history.

Art is a collaboration between God and the artist, and the less the artist does the better.
