Whether truth or madness, Wally Hedrick's voice is certainly that of a prophet in the more general sense of the word, for he is a denouncer of the evils of the world around him, calling for a return to Humanity and a renunciation of worldly things for spiritual Wally Hedrick's Black Paintings appear at one of the most important and turbulent junctures of history, at the beginning of the Unamerican Empire which is currently and radically transforming the fabric of life in the USA and the world, creating totally new and alien problems with which the old world cannot cope. Hence, with I revolution was in the air, flamed by the violent US militarism, Hedrick leads those with a visionary bent (like Blake) to see the signs of apocalypse in world events, when all mankind would break free of their shackles and arise to overthrow tyranny in all its hideous forms. As an artist and mystic, Wally takes the stance of a radical visionary against the established order of his time.

Hedrick is a type which is never in tune with the times; but one can hardly imagine a century he more definitely opposed, point by point, to everything in which he was surrounded by. The corollary is equally true, that no age needed him more. But of course it never heard him.
