Love Dub Event

Funny Story: I asked a friend if he might want someone like myself to come out and paint for a show he was DJing. He thought it would be a great idea so I counted myself in. Great music, great people, sounded like a great idea. I entered that night, picked a isolated spot, because that is the atompshere I enjoyed, and began to paint. I had two items I was working on at the present so I brought both. One was a bit taboo and the other a bit tame, but both hung clear in my mind as to what I was trying to produce that evening. The dubstep music that night moved me and I felt more driven to produce the taboo work more then the other. I started the process 213C a third installation of the 213 series.....

I was met with automatic resistance. A lady approached and started to critic the work without even asking about the content. I stood by in shock amazed that someone so openminded in image was so close minded in soul. She called herself a "burner" I guess short for the burning man movement, which I happen to think is amazing. She said that she was an independent woman and that the image offended her. She stated that all she saw was a big vigina. I laughed inside, because the concept of this work is so far from a "Big Vigina". I didn't even expain the work to the  self proclaimed "burner" because I really didn't think she would get it anyway, even though, as she stated,  she dated a conceptual artist, lol. It amazes me how many people call themselves worldly, open and understanding when they are still as straining and imperfect as the rest of us, at least I'm honest in saying I'm just as faulty as the rest of them. Long story short it killed my energy and I stopped my production on the piece within seconds. I started to work on the second more tame work. and really got another pulse of energy during the event. I started to create a more abstract work with alot of vibrate colors and patterns.....

It seemed to go off better then the taboo work with the crowd. I took the work home and added a stain pink overlay and some yellow flares. On top I added a wheatpaste print of my lovely wife as I had imagined, with a dripped out heart in white. I have to say "Thank You" to the lady at the show for switching my attention to the Muse work, I should have probably started on that work to begin with. This piece made it on to The Bad Girls Club season 5. Thanks to that self righteous lady who claimed indepence. Thank You, both works are complete and I couldn't have done it without you. It still surprises me that negative energy can sometimes be as motivating as positive energy, given the situation. In general I will turn anything positive. one beautiful piece about my wife and one beautiful peice about the tragedy of life and vanity in America.....5......
