Chocolate's Good With Chocolate

Oh you know, we're on the verge of a new calendar and all so I'm busy sucking on some chocolate here... busy.  sucking. 

I'm thinking about art, too.  I was just looking at more paintings of paint and naked people and thinking, "Gee, who doesn't love this stuff?"  and  "Maybe I should start making paintings of paint and naked people."  I got this Marilyn Minter book for Christmas, and of course, I love it.  Such gorgeous, seductive work.  It's the kinda stuff that gives you the itch to paint.  I used to do that a long time ago--make paintings of paint and naked people.  But it didn't take too long before the paint won out and I dropped the nakeds.  I wonder what my work would look like if I'd kept the flesh.  I wonder what my work would look like if I reintroduced the flesh.  I wonder.  Maybe I'll give it a shot this year.  Maybe.

For now though, I have other plans.  I have the itch to paint, and I have a plan fer scratchin.  I'll be making more paintings of paint for a while.  I'll be incorporating more fuzzies and shinies and various touchably touchables that'll make ya wanna get all touchy feely with the art and/or make ya wanna recoil and run away in horror but somehow manage to keep you transfixed like a seven layer cake full of lasagna or a nasty medical text.  At least, that's what I'll be shooting for.  We'll see how it goes. 

At any rate, Happy New Year!
