About what it takes to be a working artist. The lower section shows where we all start – in the studio. We cross into the art world where we sell art (ourselves). Aiming for the gallery and museum, there are lots of possibilities. Dozens of short stories run into each other. An Avery wave spills into Steir Waterfall down to Falling Water (Wright’s parlor to left) landing on lamppost of Singing in the Rain. Megalponera foetens begins his climb having inhaled the spore. To the left, under Nauman’s Corridor just to be safe, there is a bomb shelter. And of course, Love has everything to do with it.
