I love the emotion this. aaah yes! The color and texture you used are amazing. It looks painful. But the golden substance ozing out of the hole, seems like relief. I wish someday I could paint like that. Oh well... me like this very much. Yes siree.

P.S. I like Coca-Cola

That's fucking weird, even for me...

Yet, you did not use an airbrush, which a friend of mine tells me, with the quality of this work it is very good.

I do like it. ^_^ But...doesn't the snot come out of the nose?

toric13 [2003-05-02 21:32:22 +0000 UTC]

I know what it remind me of! (don't take this as an insult, either.) The snot/sap/yellow blood stuff remind me of a Barbie doll's hair, as they used to draw it in the 1960's for the Barbie travel carriers, and the colors are the same vivid-similar.

Ummmm yeah.

toric13 [2003-05-02 21:28:40 +0000 UTC]

Hmm... This doesn't remind me of Dali much at all...

I love the way you can even make "dark" art vivid and poppy. Even your political statements just make me happy. It's like looking at a candy store.

Oh yeah, and great job, as usual.

This reminds me very much of when you clean out the drain to the sink in the bathroom.. the hair, and scum crusted figure are amazing. I have seen this style from you in the past and its by far my most favorite of yours.. the textures always remind me of coral. awsome work.

adagiobreezes [2003-05-02 00:27:05 +0000 UTC]

I love it. I keep looking at it and wandering what it says to me. In a way, the figure seems to be posing for the audience, yet amber goo leaks from her eye and her right arm seems to have been torn from her body. I almost get the sense that she's dead from the puckering bumps that surround the eyes and the mouth and from the (blood?) ink that squirts from the wounds in the figure. The distortion almost reminds me of this terrible horror movie I saw when I was a kid. It was called "basketcase."

It looks like a tree, and then "on the other hand" it looks like a candle..

It looks like snot is coming out of his eye, and then "on the other hand" it looks like tree sap coming out of its nose.

Or your trying to make us think that your a crazy person that loves hell spawned 3rd degree burnt hellslaves.

Who knows.. we never know.. with your art.. there is just no way of knowing

And it hurts my head.. in a good way though Gives it some excercise

The colors are simply fantastic, and I like the stuff oozing out of her eye. Its got a toupee, thats cute.
I especially like the texture of her skin, it reminds me of opal stones.
