About The Artwork
I saw these similar hats constantly every day while in Vietnam in 1968 and 1970. Intriguing things. Some 30 years later I bought one for my wife, who had over the years come to love everything about Vietnam. So, I set up this still life with poetry cards, a pot of sugar for sweet poems, and apples to emphasize it. There are green leaves of a plant in the dark background for mystery. These conical hats are made in Hue City, Vietnam. Love poems are made inside so that when held up to the sun the young girl can read them.

Born in 1948, I started drawing at age 5. I had a No. 2 pencil and a pad of ordinary writing paper. I’d draw the Japanese Elms in our front yard, my dad’s car out front and the corn field across the street. Grass, sidewalk and street etc. The piano keys inside...This was in Lafayette, Indiana where I still live with my wife of 50 years. Our first daughter (1969) lives in Lafayette, while our second daughter (1972) will move back soon.
