Exploring

We rode along Front Street in Harrisburg yesterday afternoon. Perfect weather.


The gravestone of Mr. Harris, the founder of Harrisburg.



This waterflow looked a lot like the underside of a blue whale.


This very to-the-point sentence was at the Holocaust Memorial along Front Street.

White & Black

A Zebra's Stripes





I'm gonna keep this pretty quick because it's far too late for me to be doing this, but this is my most recent creation. White Charcoal on black Mi-Tientes. I wanted the effect of the black stripes blending seemlessly with the black of the paper and I think it works well. The zebra is such an enigma to me; that such an outrageous outfit could serve it well.
"PRIDE GOES BEFORE DESTRUCTION" AND IN OUR MODERN ERA, PRIDE AMONG THE NATURAL SCIENCES HAS TAKEN THE FORM OF OVERESTIMATING OUR KNOWLEDGE, OF ARROGATING FOR SCIENCE A KIND OF OMNISCIENCE THE WE DO NOT IN FACT HAVE. OR, TO REFINE IT A BIT: "PLAYING GOD" MEANS WE CONFUSE THE KNOWLEDGE WE DO HAVE WITH THE WISDOM TO KNOW HOW TO USE IT.
