Have you seen Karin Wells' fantastic work, showing the name of the person behind the figure?
Chris,

How could I miss Karin Wells' works? They stand out like beacons. In a field full of beacons, I might add. Dare I mention them all? The list would scroll off your screen onto your lap and get tangled in your feet, probably causing you to trip when you went to get some eyedrops to relieve the strain from reading the list.

And then you would have to sue me, and I can't afford that. So we will dispense with the list and talk about Karin's unique treatment of text, which is most intriguing.

If I should employ this device, an obvious question arises - what should it say?
"Cornelius, Man of God" is a possibility that would give a clue to what he is reading.
I know he would have wanted to be remembered that way.

Considering the potential impact of the painting, it seems to me a signature would be inappropriate in such a prominent role.

This is worthy of careful consideration. Thank you so much for the suggestion.
