Today, all day, I will be thinking of all the dead soldiers on all sides of all the wars in human history. If we could take all their dead bodies, would we fill the Great Pyramid or St. Peter’s in Rome or Hagia Sophia or all three? Could their coffins build a skyscraper taller than most in the world? How long would the list be of their last words? How many would have simply said, “Why?” And if each of their dreams would become a beautiful singing bird, would we suddenly be overwhelmed with song and the fluttering of wings?
That’s what I will be thinking about all day today.

About Me
- Gary
- I've taught at the Art Academy of Cincinnati for 30 years. My way to art was a bit out of the ordinary. BS, Tulane University in Mathematics and Chemistry, ready to start a dissertion in mathematics at U. of Notre Dame. Dropped out to teach at a small college in E.Kentucky. Then BS in fine art from U. of New Orleans and MFA, Drawing, U. of Cincinnati. So the study of art is less the basis of my art-making than a solid liberal arts approach to the world.
