Woman


This is but a tiny detail from a major work I will be painting this year. The works has as it's subject the femmine, both literally in terms of the female body/anatomy, but also in terms of the generative field that the feminine represents..and incidentally I expect it to be finished in around 9-10 months time. It's impossible for a man to experience the subjective reality that is the femminine, but I would say that perhaps as an artists that gives birth to paintings I do know something about the act of creating. That is of course the type of analogy that would send shudders of rage through a pregnant woman heavy with child. My commitment is slightly less demanding.

Kali Yuga..."The Age of Darkness"

Did you know that.....

In the United States at the end of 2001, 10% of the population owned 71% of the wealth, and the top 1% controlled 38%. On the other hand, the bottom 40% owned less than 1% of the nation's wealth.

As a community college teacher and an artist involved in the "art world"..I've seen all levels of this demographic.
  • ^ "Why it is hard to share the wealth"

  • ^ "Wealth Inequality Charts"

  • And yet strangely no one in America seems to be concerned in the least bit that this may lead to social instability.
    All Empires and Grand Societies are destined for destruction inevitably, we can thank Shiva for that. When the end comes I'll be toasting marshmellows in the warm glow. Perhaps this age might end up being "biblical" afterall...

    Strange


    It was a strange week..feels like something shifted in timbre with the universe, well mine anyways. I've been hibernating..one of those periods of silence between sound. We wouldn't hear music without the rest in between notes. Re-group, start again. Repetition..difference. Cabin fever results in posting meandering notes at 4:00am. I'm not sure if anyone reads this crap (I kind of hope not)..guess I should've caved and joined myspace..but to all friends..happy holidays. Jesus was a great man..but the Gnostics say that we are all sons of God..so I'm still not that impressed with the dude. His shit probably stank like anyone elses. All the rest..I wasn't there for the walking on water and such..so again..not impressed. No man is God.. but all men are god. And it all works out. Even when it's awful. In fact that's why it's good. Amen.

  • wyncko


  • And just because I'm doing this whole "wyncko" thing doesn't mean I still don't love my other two pet projects (see 2006/2007 in jacquesdebeaufort.net)..what can I say..I'm a complicated guy. Dig? By the way..these are all "sketches" in photoshop the actual paintings will differ substantially and be quite painterly..
