"In trying to choose out of several images already designated 'for Alaric' I become aware that I think thru my work, that for me art is thought. I become in the struggle to stay with it and meet a deadline also aware that my task is now difficult, very hard for me. Alaric was a kind of companion in my work. I feel the loss of his company too deeply to measure. Does that seem an exaggeration? Were he here, he would have the freshest response to this avowal, either laugh merrily, or furrow the genial brow in a thoughtful and kindly approach to such intensity of feeling.
 Or perhaps just fix his gaze just above his glasses as in this photo, open his mouth and say .... what ....what ....? ?...." -- Carlyle Reedy |
