A reminder of African masks. Great!

It looks like death mask to me no offense Dave

Artist Reply: None taken Ray : ) it's definitely eerie enough to be a death mask

John sees Modigliani; I see African tribal mask reference. I have several masks about the place. I love their simple honesty. And, like them, I like this, Dave. I notice letters but I could make no sense of them. :)

Artist Reply: I think the letters may represent some form of communication . After I did this, it reminded me of a vision I had as a small child. I was lying in bed and looking out the bedroom door.... and under the kitchen table I saw a large head with a skinny body . I remember hiding under the covers til morning .... a dream ? Perhaps : ) thanks Charles

Artist Reply: Yes, I can see that now , it's sort of a mixture of what you and Charles said .,, with a twist : ) thanks John
