jONSSON'S TAKE:
"When I first looked at this photograph of "Fourth Window" before it was put in these archives, my thoughts turned from art, beauty, depth and dimensionality, to 'What's with the hair?" Well, that was twenty years, a few extra pounds and some serious hairspray ago." (Long live humor!)
Jonsson also teaches about art specificaly relating to imagination and the role of memory in art. Workshops

"The thing I'd like everybody to walk away with after viewing my art is to consider the abilities of your own imagination. The ability to imagine with a serious degree of accuracy truly results in how your life manifests, how it plays out before you. Imagination is also crucial as I recall during my years of struggle, and as any struggling artist will tell you today, because it helps tremendously with problem solving. It also helps tremendously with having fun."
