Artist's Note:
I never imagined this piece, which is loosely based on Anglo-Saxon brooches
would generate such controversy. Yet I’m constantly called upon to
settle arguments over the images depicted in it. Often someone will come
to me insisting that they were correct in identifying one of the animals
as a unicorn and not a dragon as their friend maintains. Usually, these involve
bets of at least $10. Invariably, both parties are outraged when I told them
I never intended the animals to have specific identities. They're simply
fantasy creatures meant to display the vitality of the pentagram. --PB |
