Well, it's been almost two weeks and the most beautiful painting I have does is almost finished and ready to go to Indianapolis. I think it is time for me to admit what I am best at and go with it. Eye candy. I did it in high school. I was the best at it. Not much for making a statement, unless one considers, "Hey! Look at how awesome I am at color! A statement, but it sells." So I guess maybe I will give it a try.
I don't think they're ready for this. It'll be a slaughter of the competition. I am honestly one of the hands down, best at this when it comes to make art that simply wows and when I think about it, maybe that is exactly what the world needs right now. Enough people are saying how bad everything is. And look at this, or fix that, or social injustice this. Nobody is saying simply look at how beautiful the world still is. IT is not destroyed the beauty has just been pushed to the side to make room for every one's personal greed, egos, and fanatical worship of all things tragic. Within nature there is still a majesty. An orchestra of colors, harmony, and music. Van Goghe saw it before he went crazy, or maybe it drove him to craziness. Matisse saw it... So did Monet, Seurat, Kandinsky, Okeefe, Stella. Maybe not so much Warhol, Duschampe, and Picasso, but still there is an understanding of beauty and natural rhythm that resides in their work whether they admit it or not. So, with that, my new phase as artist salutes them. Post Modern Barbequeism gives homage to that, that is "EYE CANDY".
