...stuck in between several larger lots of cattle range and pine tree forests. Around the trailer, which was resting on blocks, were a tractor, a car, a clothesline, some horses out in the field, some baby toys, a dog with mange, and a motor-cycle under a tarpaulin. The grass was long and wet, and once I stopped my car coupling black love bugs settled...

...come snooping around my place one night, and Mr. Cowart says to him, 'Go away. That boy don't do anything wrong. Leave him alone.' I guess it seems like I come from nowhere. Sometime that first year I go to Mr. MacDonald, looking for someone to cut my grass here, it was so overgrown then. And he tells me, 'Hey, I think we can make us both some money here.' I didn't know it was hay, but now I got a tractor made in 1948, the year I was born, ready to go to work. Made a couple...

Epic Amplitude. It is also triumphant proof that high art and decoration can often be the same. The panels of the Apocalypse obey the conventions of medieval miniature painting: the schematic rocks and grass, the abstract wallpaper patterns in the sky.

Yet the design of an episode like St. Michael's casting down of Satan and the rebel angels has an epic amplitude: the heavens part in a frill of white clouds, and from it the archangel plunges down to drive his spear into the seven-headed...

...macroscale, three elements work together to create a strong and satisfying environment. These are large, freestanding buildings which define the spaces around them; a level plain of grass; and a canopy of trees. Each of these aspects has myriad levels of refinement which further enrich both the entity and the totality. For example, the buildings in the Yard are consistent in scale, materials, and architectural treatment--eaves line up, windows and roofscapes have similar rhythms. There is, however, considerable variety within these limits, and the result is never dull. The grass is enlivened by a rich pattern of pedestrian paths...

...aesthetic, enlightened art form which does not exploit the body. But the editors of Playgirl and Viva generally tread the beaten path depicting men subduing or taking advantage of brainless sex kittens. One of Viva's photographic essays begins with a disheveled, slutty wench lying on the grass half-naked, touching and enjoying her body. An arrogant, supercilious gentleman approaches her and carries her home after sampling her wares. The following pictures show him in his bedroom nude, coyly fingering a whip, making love to the girl and ends with a shot of the vain quishing hero staring off into...
