Sullivan's Dictum



This is one of my more obscure metaphorical outings, the dictum being refered is Louis Sullivan's "Form Follows Function".... and the idea, of course, was to take the bonsai and treat it as if were a natural landscape item, instead of what it really was, on a wall ledge overlooking the waves.... one of my first attempts at using color inks, did succeed in the tree, tho wish had been able to do more with the coloring of the water... in this sense it looks much as a wood block print than the painting attempted....
