What is creativity, and where can I buy some...


I have not had sex in a while...
That should explain my new series of paintings...

Hopes and Dreams for all

MLK:
... And so we've come to this hallowed spot to remind America of the fierce urgency of now. This is no time to engage in the luxury of cooling off or to take the tranquilizing drug of gradualism. Now is the time to make real the promises of democracy; now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate valley of segregation to the sunlit path of racial justice; now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood; now is the time to make justice a reality for all God's children. It would be fatal for the nation to overlook the urgency of the movement. ...
But there is something that I must say to my people who stand on the warm threshold which leads into the palace of justice. In the process of gaining our rightful place we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds.
Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred. We must forever conduct our struggle on the high plane of dignity and discipline. We must not allow our creative protest to degenerate into physical violence. Again and again we must rise to the majestic heights of meeting physical force with soul force...
...And when we allow freedom to ring, when we let it ring from every village and hamlet, from every state and city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children - black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Catholics and Protestants - will be able to join hands and to sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual, "Free at last, free at last; thank God Almighty, we are free at last."
....

It's a whole new year.

Happy new year! After a dull and medically horrific season I feel the new year has finally begun! I had some time to do some painting and just WENT CRAZY! There are canvases everywhere. Winter scenes, beach scenes, nude guys, portraits of friends... good lord I must be sublimating. Also, it is too damn cold to go out and hunt up some men (I think it was zero today).

Noel, Noel

Well, this past weekend was also a load of fun. Haven't had a group of guys come over to hang out and play around for hours in a while. One guy kept telling me he was going and then hanging around a little more (what did you tell them at work...)
Went around town to snap a few city photos, I think that they will sell as paintings - I hate to use commercial pictures and it's too damn cold out to work. Will anyone with a nice view invite me over!

Fun

OK, THAT was fun.

I really needed that. I hope that guy's butt will be OK, after a pounding like that, but really - I needed that. (PS, thank you)

Great winter pics with all this snow, so now it's back to painting for me. I seem interested in water lately. I got some great shots of snow, ice, water reflections... I wish I lived closer to the shore I would like to do some gray ocean stuff.

I wonder if I can make anything interesting out of the same old commercial stuff. If there is anything that comes out differently than what goes in, it would be those deep, deep colors - dark. I wonder what street scenes would look like with almost no light? And what is it with blue gray? everything comes out blue gray...

Also, I added a link to some of my paintings on my main page>> CLICK HERE...

Winter wonderland

A ton of snow can make a day beautiful and magical, unless you're horny - then it is a nightmare of NO SEX.

I was way too horny to paint this past weekend. Trapped inside the house with a population of men that only want a guy to just show up at the door when needed (me included).

So now this week I'm out to find a guy. I swear not to REST untill I get mine! Then I can settle down to my next project, which is a painting/construction with depth and three dimentional layers... with sculpy!

I just love to photograph in the autumn. It isn't simply the too-bright light and the crisp fall colors around you... sometimes It's just the monochromatic feel of the day. I think I was a bit too influenced by Hemingway's "The Snows of Kilimangaro". That terse, clipped style coupled with his bleak alienated settings and unengaged characters is just too, too BERGMAN!


How youth wallows in self actualization!

Holiday art party
Well, the party is this weekend and I have about a half dozen pieces to send. Yippee! I also have some of the cards done and might do more for a friend. I can't believe that I will only be able to attend for a short time because of the part-time holiday job at Filenes, oh well.

Fun with sex for the holidays

How many upright citizens got laid last weekend? A show of hands please... I thought so.
I live in a NASTY city - thank god. I took a little break from all my frantic brush strokes for the upcoming holiday party to go out and relieve some tensions.

And in this holiday season I am grateful... that I have almost no gag reflex left - because I am thankful... for the ten inches that I russled up and wrassled down this weekend. I know, I know, I much prefer to be the "getter" in these things... but some times a man has to rise (or lower) to the occasion. Especially if he was as horny as I have been.

And while we're on the subject, about this creativity and saiety thing... I just wanted to nap and watch TV afterwards... so I guess that settles that for all time.

Sex really is a fun waste of time so if anyone wants to have some EMAIL ME bostonwill@lycos.com.

Fun with a Board
Yes, I do mean CLUE! Saturday was fun. Spent it meeting new people and learning new games... CARD games. One of the guys I was talking to said: That's weird, you have no problem at all telling me all about your kinky sex life, but have trouble admitting you once went to CHARADES parties.

That is truly "The gay experience" now isn't it? The party, in Vermont< was really a hoot. Lots of good food, good conversation and the chance to connect.

I spent Sunday hooking up with friends, thinking about departed loved ones and going to Mount Auburn Cemetary to take some more photos. It ended up being a very peaceful day and I loved some of the images I got.

I might even make one of these my X-mas card this year. How weird is that? Merry christmas, here's a picture of a GRAVESTONE that I think is festive!
