Immanuel Kant, 1724-1804

I am not smart enough to read Kant, but I enjoy doing it anyway: it's a sort of meditative experience to read him, especially aloud.  Anyway, this is a linocut print.  I haven't quite got the hang of doing cuts--something to do with difficulty seeing in postive vs. negative space, I suppose--but it's a fun crafty art, even though it takes me a rather long time to do even a small one.

William James

1842-1910.  One of the great American philosophers, and one of my favorites; his work on Pragmatism has been one of the most significant philosophical influences on my life.  (I may do a version of this portrait in paint in the next few days.)
