Gerhard ... thanks for the bio info on the artist. I will add that to my general knowledge of world religions. I do wish, however, that the artist had taken the time to explain the different symbols used in the piece (for example ... why does the god have an erection?, why the bound hands? You have your ideas about that, I've got mine ... I'd like to hear the artist's straight from the horse's mouth (as we say here). The bio is nice, but it doesn't tell me as much as I would like to know about that particular piece of artwork. (Kind of like getting a bio on Michaelangelo .... doesn't help with the understanding of Christian symbology in his work ...... bit of trivia, does anyone realize that his self portrait is visible in the flayed skin of one of the saints in the Sistine Chapel?) Told you .... I can be a real know it all. But really, it's an art at which I excell. Primary reason I have no friends. :)

Could be worse, could be raining.
