Early this year, inspired by "The Sight of Silence: John Cage's Complete Watercolors" by Ray Kass, I started a series of works on paper called "For John Cage." The first four pieces I completed, however, didn't really fit conceptually with the rest of the series, so I renamed them and have replaced them with the pieces "For John Cage #'s 5-8. " Since this is the John Cage centennial, the series will end with "For John Cage #100."
