Perspicuous

Above you can see my artwork with a title "Perspicuous". It's a photo of work on acrylic on canvas.
I think it clearly shows my love for geometrical/mathematical art. In case you wonder about the odd word "Perspicuous" - I gave this title to the artwork in honor of the person I admire very much: the famous late geometer Donald Coxeter. Perspicuous was one of his favorite words.
I'm sure you are familiar with the word intelligibility so I guess I really don't need to explain perspicuous to you.

BTW - I think Dr. Coxeter would like the word 'zemified'.

An excellent biography about H.S.M Coxeter is S. Roberts' The King of Infinite Space. Enjoy.
