The Pyramid

by Vox Parvis ...

It's complicated, hard to explain really, but it made perfect sense to me. Although, honestly, it's a shitty book, don't let the first chapter fool ya. So I just been telling people the book's about a piece of art, 'cause when you're done reading it, you might not get that. And you know, good art is never about art anyway; it's always about something else. So the books not really about a pyramid. ... Read more

Naïve painting is often distinguished by its clarity of line, vivacity and joyful colours, as well as by its rather clean-cut, simple shapes, as represented by French artists such as Henri Rousseau, ...
