Namatjira. Repin. Seiwert.

And GOLDSWORTHY. Why is Goldsworthy so good? I don't understand

Michael5000 said...

Morgan, I've wondered that too. I think it's one of those 10% inspiration 90% perspiration sorta dealies. He has vision, but then he applies an out-of-this-world standard of meticulous craftsmanship to its execution. (He's going to get one of my votes too. Can you tell?)

...and that wraps it up for Flight 12, and for all of Phase I of the Play-In Tournament! Moving on to Phase II are Goldsworthy, who logged a massive .923 voting average; Repin, at .615, and -- tied for third -- Namatjira and the late-surging Lois Dodd, who both scored .462.
