DUE TO POPULAR DEMAND...DRAWING HIATUS!
I'm in the studio working on paintings at the moment. Drawings will resume in approximately 1 week. Will post jpegs of the paintings as soon as they are remotely presentable.

yeah,I think this is pretty fresh-carol es is creepy and prickly-
I'm not mad, I just type that way! And no one... NO ONE badmouths Amy Sillman on my blog.
If you don't like her paintings, fine. But her work has nothing to do with Julie Mehretu's work. I agree with you completely about Mehretu, by the way. But even if you're unconvinced by Amy's paintings, their material and conceptual concerns have NOTHING to do with Mehretu. You're just lumping them together because they're both more or less abstract.
Also, I would ask if you've seen Sillman's paintings in person. Her work is very poorly served in reproduction.
'Pat is the only one of my friends who
is an 18th-century roue. Despite what
people say about Pat's lack of "life-
skills", what he really lacks is "dying-
with-dignity" skills; instead he opts
for the "drink oneself to near-death
and then resolve to turn over a new
leaf with a transparent lack of
commitment" skill set. Pat is
surprisingly intelligent given the
prolific amount of booze and drugs he
has taken over his life. Which is to
say, he is mildly retarded. I have
known Pat for fourteen years, and at
the beginning he would play the
vicious, intolerant bigot to my
verminiferous Gollum. Now, he plays the
vicious, intolerant bigot to my
vicious, intolerant bigot. I'm amazed
we've stayed friends despite our
multiple attempts to derail that
friendship. By the way, Pat will die of
Hodgkin's disease.' --Bobcat, 2004

You all think you're so smart.
