And yet you are creating beautiful art in this crucible.<br /><br />I will be working next week on a piece about Wojnarowicz (with some of your art) to post on the anniversary of his death, July 22. <br /><br />Thanks, Grandmere Mimi and JCF, I enjoyed reading your comments here.Kittredge Cherryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02617858676733169316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2343439372519556254.post-2125036534853521142013-07-11T11:11:20.262-04:002013-07-11T11:11:20.262-04:00The painting is one of my favorites of your works,...The painting is one of my favorites of your works, though, as I scroll through your sidebar, I see other favorites.

Yes, I agree, it needs a little work now to make it look more like the moon.<br /><br />As for the flaccidity, see Cole Porter's song "Too Darned Hot."<br /><br />The reason that there is no AC in my studio is that when Thomas Edison personally installed the wiring in this 1892 building, he only put in one outlet per room that I'm not sure could stand the strain.Counterlighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14345956180434795401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2343439372519556254.post-36820224381864673392013-07-11T03:35:41.009-04:002013-07-11T03:35:41.009-04:00Forgive my ignorance in such matters (hard to beli...Forgive my ignorance in such matters (hard to believe I was married to a man once!): that's flaccid from the heat, right? [Though it's the position of his back and arms that really looks uncomfortable]<br /><br />***<br /><br />The re-painting makes it look less generic, less commercial (in an advertising sense). However, I'm not certain about the moonrise (it is moonrise?). When the painting wasn't naturalistic, it didn't matter as much (it was just Krazy Kat, after all!). But now, it looks a little out of place (JMO, of course).<br /><br />***<br /><br />Is there a specific reason your studio isn't AC'd? [Like it would mess w/ the paints or some such]<br /><br />Always enjoy not only seeing your work, Doug, but learning of the processes which go into creating them. :-)JCFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14516376500318551838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2343439372519556254.post-29664057253130117482013-07-10T22:18:47.734-04:002013-07-10T22:18:47.734-04:00Doug, I prefer the newer version of the painting, ...Doug, I prefer the newer version of the painting, and the drawing is very good indeed.June Butlerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01723016934182800437noreply@blogger.com
