Artist's Description

even small machines that manufacture delight sometimes get the blues, need a refuge, weep a little. If you see one, be sure to pick it up and whisper to it, words of gratitude and appreciation. Or sing. They like to hear you sing.

Your words are so poignant with the bright/dark sadness of the image….each could stand alone, too. So good, Evelyn!

Hi Naia,

The little curvaceous whirligig struggles up the slope, prodded from behind by the sharp-edged cubist taskmaster. Will she make it? Of course she will, Evelyn is waiting for her at the top! Very cool abstract. Thank you for giving life to the quiet and neglected graffinini.

graffinini! love it! a silly one would be a graffininicompoop, right! I like your story -
I thought the whirligig, weary after a day of manufacturing unappreciated delight, slips into the refuge of the hot pink wings…
