Description
,,The Alchemist,,-technique transfer;oil on plate;40/30 cm;1991.
-Technology of transfer,magic of case and freedom of interpretation.I discovered in the image character of alchemist in his fruitless efforts to create gold as well as some reference to the art world.The artist also rather hopelessly strives for perfection.It is culmination of the work,but the road to it is more important.This is the alchemy of art!

On your one month anniversary...In memoriam....Henryk Gorecki (1947-May 20, 2019) Thank you for showing me “ the alchemy of Art”...as you wrote in your description. If there was ever a contemporary Master Artist who strove for...and REACHED...Perfection on this side of the veil, it was you. You are sorely missed. May your family and friends be comforted this day.

I never noticed the faces in his robes...I guess you have to turn it upside down to see them well!
Henryk Gorecki replied:
Thank you very much,Jenny!I suspect the alchemist as man also had a face.Here under the hood on top,on the right..
