I say "professional", because sometimes they live a long life but don't create anything after a certain time or just do something occasionally, etc. well, looking forward to your new posts about Parrish ;)Elenitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06714615485941030452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2929143980639047168.post-51719834234656009902011-04-24T23:13:14.770-04:002011-04-24T23:13:14.770-04:00Elenita, thank you for the comment.

And there is, I think, a decay in the quality of his works, but, at the very same time, there is, as you say, a profoundity.EEHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14642044214760840611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2929143980639047168.post-87647850885907253672011-04-24T14:19:56.442-04:002011-04-24T14:19:56.442-04:00you know, he is one of my favorite artists too! an...you know, he is one of my favorite artists too! and I prefer his paintings , although I like illustrations very much. He has such a mystery in his art ....at least I feel like that :)<br />and his last work is a very simbolic one "Getting away from It All", he said a lot by this. it reminded me somehow on late works of classical composers, in last works they are even more profound than usual, it's like an essence of all their life which they express .Elenitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06714615485941030452noreply@blogger.com
