What imagery! What a beautifully uncomplicated style! What a marvelous celebration of Spring! This one is, if not a masterpiece, certainly a pleasant and even soothing rendition of geometric form that even the most jaded and the least sophisticated among us might enjoy....
Ain't that just neater'n knees on fleas?

Y'know, that caught my eye, too. D'you reckon that even this purist of art forms is being raped by the greed of degenerate corporate scoundrels?
Oh, say it's not so!

Of course, of course...., shoulda seen that for myself. It's all a part of the mastery of the medium, isn't it: the story beyond the words; the picture concealed within the paint.
I'll look for the the artist's final flourish on the woo-woo boards.

It's been so for quite some time.
I highly recommend the Circle Makers site. There was a good interview with these guys a while back, I think it might've been a Skepticality episode, I'll duck over and have a look... Yup, here it is. It's an interview with Rob Irving.

A great opener for the '07 Crop Circle season!
