I think technically the pipe is in the eye of the beholdee.. I wanted to say beheld, but I am pretty sure that is only used as a past participle. :lol:
Thank you kindly. The schools I attended as a boy in Arkansas were eventually taken over by the state after decades of failure. The only reason I have any ability to write is because we were so poor my father took me to the library for amusement. It was free.
Yeahhhh.. I was really just being a smartass. I have zero grasp of English.. it was one of my worst subjects.. oh and Math that was my worst subject too.
I find all that dude's paintings to be unsettling. Like going to a pipe show after dropping acid.

Because that is what a self-sufficient hermit would do.
I could be a hermit. But an utterly dependent one. I'd need Dear Sweetie to stop in once in a while and cook. :D

Thanks MD! I have been trying really hard for the past two months to get my head around all the different figure drawing methods taught at art schools, but without actually going to art school. It is not something that has come easily at all, so it feels good to have someone like it :D

Yeah, that's the tricky part. A friend of mine lived with Dugout Dick for a while in Idaho. Dick had a lady for a while, but she wanted the comforts of a town and left him to his caves.
