Picture by Brose, '27




Found this 8x12 ink and gouache portrait a while back in a pile of junk.  I've subsequently worked bits of it into some of my own computer-based art.  Besides liking flapper subject, I find the piece a paradoxical testament to how 'good' something completely inept can be.  Are good and inept ever really that far apart?  A friend of mine says one could write an excellent  Ph.D. dissertation in two weeks if one had to.
