The Piano by Peter Gumaer Ogden, 1976, pen and ink. I did this when I was a student at University of Miami, Coral Gables. I didn't realize how blatantly symbolically sexual and phallic it was until many years after I created it--straight out of the subconscious mind of a 19 year old male with raging hormones--early marijuana experimenting played a role! Some of the imagery comes from what I saw underwater when I was doing a lot of snorkeling over reefs in the Caribbean Virgin Islands around that time. The whole piece was straight out of my subconscious mind--kind of like free association verse only visual instead of verbal. I recall now that I actually won a prize for this piece. One art professor advised me to work in color. Imagine this piece in color!
