Jasper one day in 1954 destroyed all the work in his possession. he was known for his skill and daring at rebuilding his past. only 4 pieces survived and are in the hands of others.
The first lithograph to be printed and released was "Target", which in scale and technique suggests a conte crayon drawing made directly on the stone. also the clearest suggestion we have that a target can be compared to the pupil of an eye.

They argued for a period of time about why and why not they were called sculptures..
