Notice I did not say "the most beautiful painting" in the world's history - nor even the most sought after. Its value is in historical content. Gaze carefully upon the exhibited painting...you are looking upon the last (time documented, one-minute) painting of the past 1,000 years!

If history holds no meaning for you, read no further...

Otherwise, continue on to read of this historical masterpiece of the ages!

Excerpt from Chapter 23 of autobiographical sketches

Many ideas had come to mind and had been tossed aside before I finally decided upon the last painting of the current millennium; Von Braun had made a statement to the effect that "going to the moon was the greatest step for mankind since aquatic life first crawled onto dry land." Who was I to argue with the emphasis of such a statement? Many of us were to be alive during that tiny "pinpoint of history" when sputnik first went into space and millions, including myself, were sitting in front of black and white TV's watching the first man set foot on the moon. The last painting of the old millennium should then be, I reasoned, a quick symbolism of that event. There must be two inclusions in the work, I felt... One, a central splash of light representing creation where the devices of man were fashioned. The other symbolizing earth and moon shapes and "motion lines" depicting the flight of the spacecraft and landing module.

The Millennium works and all of the artist/writer's creative concepts are based, directly or indirectly, upon his composite theory as outlined in The Eternal Instant. This book - relating to the metaphysical - should be read first or in conjunction with all of his other remarkable creative enterprises - some published, some yet to be published or completed.
