1. I found that fascinating, SoCalDem!

Thanks...

It was 'sad' how at the last drawing everything seems so structured, hard, and cold after the incredible ones before....

2. I remember once seeing spider-webs of spiders that were on LSD

The webs were not the geometric webs they usually made, they were abstract.

3. MOST interesting!

I can see a parallel to the evolution of George Harrison's guitar playing (from "Meet The Beatles" to "Revolver") in the progression of the images. Except for the final one, that is.

5. The easy transition to cubism makes you think

Is cubism just that natural a perception of reality that the technique of this drug-enabled artist is very similar to that of deliberate Cubists like Picasso and Braque? Or is the artist just familiar enough with the Cubists to ape their style?

Regardless, I think the tempora piece was the most amazing.

6. Or did Picasso and Braque

alter their consciousness (naturally or via drugs) to create their art?
