THE ROAD MATTERS AS MUCH AS THE DESTINATION.
Study of the Muse
The Study of the Muse follows the creative trail backward and forward through poems, paintings, music, photographs, experiments, failures, jokes, obsessions and strange little moments that became part of The Poet Mr Fab.
This is not a retrospective arranged neatly after the fact. It is an excavation of influence: where the Muse appeared, disappeared, changed costumes and occasionally kicked the door down.
David is the prism. Mr. Fab is the brightest refraction.

POETRY & COMPANION WORKS
Words beside pigment. Poems written with paintings, photographs, moments, and visual experiments that became inseparable from them.

THE MUSE APPEARS
Music. People. Faith. Accidents. Obsessions. Humor. Strange encounters. The things that entered the work before anyone knew they mattered.

THE LIVING ARCHIVE
The Study continues in real time.
New pieces, recovered fragments, old photographs, process, memories, experiments, and whatever the Muse drags through the door next.

FROM THE ARCHIVE
FEATURED FRAGMENT
2019: Imagined Reality
A painting and companion poem about perception, fantasy, reflection, and the doors of inception. One recovered fragment inside the larger Study.
The work keeps acquiring a story.
Nothing here is finished simply because it happened in the past. The archive changes as memory, meaning, and the Muse return to it.
