Very nice! You always have nice artists with great talent at the Art Shows Matt. Won't be able to make this one since I have to work. I will try for your next one!
That the bra appears to be stuck beneath that pale only confuses me and makes this image compelling. If it was simply hanging there as if removed in haste, I'd say there was passion involved; but the reality of this image says something different. Perhaps she was preparing to take it off after a hard day at Homer Laughlin and, suddenly, the doorbell rings...She had to put it somewhere and certainly the floor wouldn't do. But what about the postman? What was his reaction? Did he bring more than just a box? A certified letter announcing a suit? Foreclosure? Was it even a postman? A robber? A rapist? The questions are endless because of this bra.
No, I see it now. How did I miss it? The bra is free, it is simply lying there. The woman removed it after a hard day's work and is now engaged in a hard night's hump. Of course.
Matt,
Thanks for bringing the comments back. The interior shots of all the (abandonded) buildings are great, Really help flesh out waht we read in the paper. On that,
any thoughts of returning to the Review? They lost a fantastic "eye" when Wayne left.
Doug--Thank you. And no, there is no chance I would go back to the newspapers. First of all, they wouldn't have me. Second, they don't pay enough, and third, I love working at KSU.
Jeff--
That painting sparked a lot of conversation at last night's reception. It was one of nine paintings Craig sold during the exhibit opening.
M,
So did you remember to get me a book?
Craig doesn't have any of the books, but I'll try to get you one somewhere.
