Duck off, that's quakers

Lennon and McCartney wrote about, '40,000 holes in Blackburn, Lancashire'. I have no idea what that would look like but I do know what 40,000 blue rubber ducks looks like.

Art. I Forget How Big I'am

I've painted a quite a lot of animals but I've given most of them away, painted them on card or painted over them but I did find this one.

Chain And The Gang

I know there is a cycle term, 'Chain gang' but this is Ian Sventious latest band.
Ian is the living walking the fine line between genius and madness.

Art. What Woman Wants; Shoes

This painting was originally one of a trio of paintings that I had called, 'What Woman Wants' and it was a painting of a handbag, a painting of shoes and a painting of a cock. Now I know that sounds very sexist, but in Spinal Tap fashion I prefer to say sexy. It was actually more of a social statement on 'wag culture'.
This painting was an original one and I always liked it but I did do another version of it in which the shoes were brighter red, shinier and the heels were alot longer and came to a sharp, spiked point. I did this version as a present to a lady I met through some friends. Before I was introduced to her she had been described to me as a dominatrix, the full leather trenchcoat and high heels instantly confirmed she was slightly different, when she took off the coat to reveal a pvc corset I did think it was slightly unusual attire for a Monday evening dinner with friends. She was instantly a very amiable person, humorous, very social and a pretty good cook. Apart from the dress sense I can't really say she seemed so dominant or scary. After dinner everyone was joking about her and how i hadn't seen her room. Now, the things they said about it I thought was just to joke and wind me up, it wouldn't be true? Sure the lady was dressed a little eccentric but she was so pleasant, I imagined a dominatrix to be a really mean, hard faced bitch. Before I went home, I was escorted into her room.
I guess it was just an ordinary room.........for an ordinary dominatrix!!!!!

Triple art and six degrees of seperation

The other week Sandy Carson dot com went to a book launch party in Austin for a new Ed Templeton photo book. He told me he had something to post to me, eventually a tube arrived in the post. It was a poster from the book launch signed by Deanna and Ed which included a little Ed drawing, skate nerd stoke out for me. Thanks so much Sandy.
The same day as it arrived I picked up two prints that Clifford Unsworth had done for me from his art degree show. I'm loving these prints so much, simple, twisted and truthful.
Weird thing is, these all arrived to me on the same day and Clifford and Ed know each other. Six degrees and all that.
