Lately been on a lovely visual journey into the multitudinal reflections of my downtown, Asheville. I've seen things in things, areas of thinglessness and bristling thingitude. I even saw myself in all this world, and loved it.

When color is all over the place, i wonder about the nature of randomness - did the person in trying to cover things up knowingly make art simply by adhering to some inner esthetic?
