Carving Is Easy, You Just Go Down

And Still I Am Learning.

I Cannot Live Under Pressures From Patrons, Let Alone Paint.

The Mind, The Soul, Becomes Ennobled By The Endeavour To Create Something Perfect, For God Is Perfection, And Whoever Strives After Perfection Is Striving For Something Devine.

Carving Is Easy, You Just Go Down To The Skin And Stop.

Is It Any Wonder, Since, When Near The Fire, I Was Melted And Burned, If Now That It's Extinguished Outside Me, It Besets And Consumes Me Inside, And Bit By Bit Reduces Me To Ashes?
