This artist's proof on Japanese rice paper I believe I did in 1978 from drawings that I made into a zinc plate etching with a grease red drawing pencil back in 1978 was it? My Uncle Mort had just passed away in California and it had quite a profound impression on me of loss and grief and so I did a series based on this event. This image here above is of the burial outside in a open field : simple and basic. No pomp and ceremony here except for that of perhaps deep emotion and respect for a fallen friend, family member, pillar of a small community? I'd like to think so. Cheers and Uncle Mort if you can see me and this know that I miss you and am glad to have known you and had you in my life. TONY

Tony: I didn't see this one at your art show? I would love to see the original one day. You are very talented and your Paris work is exceptional.
Thanks Karen, it is one of my very favorites and there are a series of them. I will show them to you next time. It may be my best work done in Paris? That and " The Party ". Cheers, TONY
