Ok, though I really like the other word art ones in this gallery this one trapped me.First thing I thought when I saw it was the artist Basquiat in it's overall feel.It is good to see another with the vision to use words as the art itself.I have an ongoing project that utlizes the same idea and hopefully it will be out into the world before the year is up .anirban bora 19 May 2006
