  Virgil Finlay Biography
Finlay chose to use both techniques on the same drawing: filling areas with fl so that he could scratch through to the white to achieve a specific tone of gray and also creating his middle tones and grays with hatching and stippling in fl ink on the white surface.
Finlay's stippling ability almost lost him the job as Wright was uncertain that such fine dots would reproduce on the cheap pulp paper.
Finlay was a fan of the genre as well as one of the most talented artists to enter the field.

 :: Finlay the rock band ::
There are echoes of Sonic Youth, Pavement and Eric's Trip in these blasts of avant-melody and bruised burnished punk, building to the 1-2 punch of 'Magic Queen' and 'Theme', the former a thorny late night hurtle through dark alleys of fuzz and septic riffage, the latter a soul-sating, speaker-shredding guitar-vs-melodica duel a la Mogwai.
London's Finlay specialise in accessible alterna-pop that makes absolutely no concessions to this years model, instead they deploy primitive beats and off-key harmonies, recalling the early adventures of Pavement and Ted Leo.
Finlay really excite me. There is some kinda electric buzz in the air when this bunch of skinny bedragled young things wield their instruments - they are at once passionate and tender with caustic guitar sounds that rip your heart strings.

 Little Sparta Ian Hamilton Finlay
On the one hand, Finlay, beginning with with his early experiments with concrete poetry, has always been acutely sensitive to the formalist concerns (colour, shape, scale, texture, composition) of literary and artistic modernism.
On the other hand, Finlay, a committed poet and student of classical philosophy, has also always recognised the power of language and art to shape our perceptions of the world and even to incite us to action.
Begun in 1966 when Finlay relocated with his family to the site, an abandoned farm, Little Sparta is a deliberate correction of the modern sculpture garden through its maker's revisiting the Neoclassical tradition of the garden as a place provocative of poetic, philosophic and even political thought.

 HHMI's BioInteractive - B. Brett Finlay, Ph.D.
Brett Finlay knew that he wanted to become a scientist almost from the moment that he first toddled after his parents, both biologists, as they investigated the natural world in their community outside Edmonton, the capital of the Canadian province of Alberta.
Building on that knowledge, Finlay is now focusing on testing a number of bacterial molecules discovered in his laboratory for use both as vaccines to prevent infections and as targets for new drugs to treat people once they've been infected.
Finlay's laboratory work has given him a healthy respect for the sophisticated ways in which bacteria behave, but visiting the hospital wards with his wife—and seeing children with life-threatening infections—has given Finlay a sense of the societal as well as intellectual importance of his work.

 Jacket 15 - Ian Hamilton Finlay in conversation with Nagy Rashwan
Landscape artist, poet, sculptor, and painter Ian Hamilton Finlay was born in 1925 in Nassau, Bahamas, and returned to Scotland as a child.
Experimenting in the realms of the composite artistic forms and materials, Finlay’s art enacts a process of multi-layered aesthetic symbolisation of history and mythology, of nature and culture; a process of collaboration and search for ever more artistic possibilities embodying his contemplative moral and aesthetic reflections.
Within the realm of transcendent values and thoughts, Finlay’s aesthetic articulates a critical distance of philosophical contemplation and reflections, and within the realm of history and mythology his artistic compositions diminish allusionist and metaphoric distances between references and symbolic connotations.
