Clef De Zoo #3
American Sign Language (Fingerspelling) Translation


One could not help but notice the anthropomorphic gestures cloaking prodigious wisdom. Sensing the gorilla was my “Clef De Zoo”; I felt compelled to make a pilgrimage to visit the great Silverback.

Anthropomorphism is an interesting thing isn't it? That we need to give it our characteristics to relate to it. Except we would hate to relate with anyHUMANS living in a cage.

Great Message!

I happened apon your photo and my first response was to recall the the writings of Daniel Quinn in his book Ishmael. A book that affected me greatly and your photo is just how I invisioned Ishmael in my mind. It's amazing.

Thank you so much for your kind words. You're one of the few people to comment on any of my "Clef De Zoo" series. I guess everybody loves the "pretty colors" :) of my "Into The Woods" series. By the way, I very much like your paintings of dogs. I too had a wonderful golden retriever mix named Max. You captured it's spirit quite nicely.

Take care,
Phil

Well, they ARE very pretty colors. :D Thank you for your comment on my paintings. I think when it comes to dogs, you can't beat a golden. They are so intelligent. by the way, 'twas your avitar that caught my eye first...we happen to have the exact same initials. ;)

Great photo. But, from a design perspective, my eye wants the photo to go to stretch to the same margins as the "text."
