Although the style shows originality in conception, it is definitely limited--as an extensive viewing of these canvases shows. Furthermore, within the limits he has set for himself, O'Hara often fails to relate his subjects to the background. "Morning Light" is an example of spatial confusion...
...claims he has seen more "flying saucers" than anyone alive insists that the spatial phenomenon does not exist...
...gram of matter contains within itself energy (E) which is the equivalent in ergs to the square of the velocity of light (c²) in centimeters per second. Einstein went on to demonstrate mathematically that there can be no absolute measure of time or space because all spatial bodies are in perpetual motion, relative to one another. He showed that the increased speed of mass, whether a railroad train or a whole whirling galaxy, not only changes the mass, but alters the very yardsticks by which men seek to measure it. Einstein's conclusion: "Mass is merely another form...
...machinery, with which we can in the most facile manner explore the themes of Gullible's Travels Thru Harvard (hereinafter referred to as gttf 1). Primitivism, atavism, satiricism, and fancifulism are the four poles about which we must revolve, slowly and steadfastly. Admittedly, such an approach requires a temporary spatial schizophrenia, there being only two poles per world in accepted naturalistic schematization. Never mind, because it we are to adopt this attitude, we must merely become a kind of eternally pendent deus ex machina, which many of our genre before us have done with considerable self-gratification and emolument...
...religious approach could not be avoided. A comparable task might be the understanding of Chartres cathedral by the man who was not born in its shadow, does not worship there daily, is not aware of the myriad architectural problems solved in its construction, and no longer conceives spatial dimensions to be precisely analogous to religious dogmas...
