Portrait of Clara (as a chemist)
1 month ago
Meanwhile the mind, from pleasure less,
Withdraws into its happiness:
The mind, that ocean where each kind
Does straight its own resemblance find;
Yet it creates, transcending these,
Far other worlds, and other seas;
Annihilating all that's made
To a green thought in a green shade.
Andrew Marvell, "The Garden" 41-48

Wow! So mature and collegial. Very adult. You get a star for the day.
What? Adults don't do sticker charts?? Thpppt!
AND, he graciously welcomed my query, and quickly too. Very, very nice, for a nemesis.
I don't suppose it would interest you to know that you've been my art-nemesis for some time, mostly out of my admiration for your work, and I've always valued your input.
You ARE an adult! (But still young & hip & shit.)
Hope he gives you useful feedback. I may be pestering him to read my own intro at some point, in fact (I read one of his longer chapters last winter, so I figger it's equitable).
That's super nice for a nemesis. Perhaps, like the Heath Ledger's Joker in the recent Batman film, you two can "complete" each other. :) That's my favorite line in that movie. Heath Ledger was so brilliant as the Joker.
