Yes, much appreciation š, Karen for sharing that lovely Iron Man original story from Jean Loomis. I didnāt realize the intricacies of the design harked back to the X in the RS-1 Christ lecture and the wedge blade from the Church lecture. For those of you who donāt click on the Archives link to 4-page PDF description from Jean, at least read this screenshot paragraph: Deconstructing the work.
My dad often said he thought he was Jean Loomisās model for the Iron Man, since he was long and lanky like the Iron Man. I got a kick out of that. To Jeanās urban myth comment at the end her piece, I wonder how many people in Fifth City and beyond fancied themselves the model or fabricated the creator of this iconic statue. Itās all Good. š

Thank-you, Karen.
I still have the Ottawa House Iron Man.
I also recall Jeanās giant frames for the gym, including a Black Augustine.The others were ā¦.. Teresa of Avila and ā¦.?????
