Pinocchio
There are the artist's
and public's favorite creations, and there are those too plentiful to
feature on paper or in cyberspace. The artist’s favorite is a wooden
puppet. A wooden Pinocchio puppet. And, not unlike its fairy tale father
Gepetto, he too carved it to bring it to life, something metaphysical
with which he could communicate. Someone he could adopt as his own son
and teach him, understandably, the art of woodworking.
