New ART or AHT
Here is my most recent "guy on the beach" thingy. I am beginning to feel like Tuke, but with men - not boys.


What do you think? Am I getting any better?

Who the hell am I talking to...

Holiday craft fair.

Well, it's time once again to start working on the things I want to sell at my friend Noah's Holiday Craft Fair. More landscapes or go all out with some of the naked man paintings I've been doing... what to do?
I do love Noah's parties. Such jollity (I don't know if thats really a word, but if it isn't - it should be). Lots of people lots of cookies lots of INTERCOURSE (Oh, look it up you perverts).
Having my artwork on display will be, a bit anxiety inducing. I can post stuff here, because it isn't REALLY looked at. But there will be some gallery grade artists there...

What is it with the naked man paintings? This is beyond.... ANYTHING comprehensible.
postscript:
I went with a mix, some winter scenes, a couple of artsy nudes. Nothing too... "you've captured just the right flush of blood in that penis, sweetie" unfortunatley it was snowed out. Poor friend. He put a LOT of work into it.

Moving on up!

Packing and moving, as if LOOKING for the damn place wasn't enough work. At least I will be downtown again... oh happy day! Can't wait for the fun and fun and fun!
Not that it isn't fun here. Gary made the funniest comment EVER.

I was busy in my room with a few FRIENDS from the net I was cruising... chatting up. And after the last one (of about 4, that's not TOO many for a Party - is it?) slouched out the front door, I put on my robe and went to socialize with the roomies in the living room.
Without missing a beat Gary said "I was beginning to think of your room as a clown car - like in the circus. Just how many men were going to eventually come pouring out of there!" That BITCH, That funny, funny bitch! I am going to use that line if it takes my whole life!

Come to think of it, I almost wet myself on another line of his. Granted, it was one of those you-had-to-be-there lines, but I snorted coffee out mah NOSE!

It was a beautiful summer day and I had taken my coffee to the back porch to enjoy the moment. Now you need to know that I am a hirsute kind of guy, and that I am very, very well groomed; I use Nair on my back and I clip my chest hair to a presentable length for society. Good grooming is good grooming, after all. It isn't what you were given; (with ONE exception) It's what you do with it.

So there I was lapping up my morning joy by the mouthful: communing with the flora and admiring the fauna all about me. One of the fauna I was admiring was the tree surgeon who was whacking branches off the neighbor's tree. I was hoping that all the buzzing buzzing buzzing of branches in the hot sun would cause the slightest discomfort with that all too thick appearing T-shirt he was wearing. When suddenly I heard, louder than the buzz saw being wielded a few yards from me, Gary YELL from the kitchen:"WILL! ARE YOU TRIMMING YOUR BACK HAIR AGAIN?"
He really is an insufferable bitch. But FUNNY!

Mr. America





A rather gratuitous self portrait.
This is the third I've done. I bearded one - from my youth I sent to Tammy, no acknowledgment. A HUGE G.I. Joe type of thing with my face, and this one of me straddling the world and holding my member... is THAT Freudian OR WHAT.

Kinky Sex...
Yes, we are all probably kinky in some way, some more than others. I can now add another to the ten best sex experiences of my life (I'll have to figure out what to bump, or just make it 11). There was just a hint of auto-asphyxiation, something I would NEVER have dealt with, oh well it proves the adage NEVER SAY NEVER!


It has, however, got me thinking about Pandering. When does art become... well, less arty and more DIRTY?
I would react favorabily to a bondage painting hanging in a gallery (I would react whole-heartedly, from my non-exsistant hairline to my trembly little toes, at a bondage MAN hanging from the gallery...), but how would I feel about seeing it hanging over the couch of a friend. And how would that change what I thought about my friend?

Monday, May 16th It's a whole new world.


At least until 2006! Tonight there are parties and celebations in Massachusetts (and especially the next town down the street from my home in Arlington: Cambridge City Hall) the first couples are lining up to get hitched... Not to rain on anyones parade but I HOPE they know what they're doing! Except the lesbians, they always know what they're doing.





God bless us one and all! Happy and joyous nuptials to all... wait a minute, if it's considered bad form to never congratulate the bride... then WHO ARE WE GOING TO CONGRATULATE? Hee Hee I couldn't resist that one.

Spring is in the Air...
Lovely weather for boy-watching and long walks on the esplande. I am spending a lot of time trying to reconnect with friends after that long and horrible winter, PLUS painting guys that I chat with from around the world. Lots of fun there, stay posted for pics!

We Shall Overcome


It was rather exciting to see so many people of VERY different views mingling in front of the state house yesterday. The youngsters on both sides were shouting themselves hoarse but there were just as many people talking quietly and being considerate of feelings on both sides of this fundamentally irreconcilable topic. When it comes to gay rights there is no gray area with our born again / Mel Gibson-conservative Catholic foes. I was a little disheartened by the inability of the black churches to see the bigger picture, but what did I really expect of them. The conversations I had showed that most of the was coming from the pastors, ministers and priests; and they were just toeing the line of the right wing agenda. They are being told that the coming apocalypse will be heralded by the lack of good moral - as found in the bible. "And God so hates the world that he will rain fire down on you if you do not take a stern and unforgiving look on... love?"

My two favorite things came from the same family, the first was a sign which said MARRY THEM ALL AND LET GOD DECIDE! Which is a particularly pointed and witty rephrasing of the infamous answer to the question the first crusaders received about how to proceed with war on a population where you couldn't tell who the heretics were and who the good were. The head of the crusade said - KILL THEM ALL AND LET GOD DECIDE.! Oh my!

The second was the above woman's husband, who was handing out buttons that said GOD HATES SHRIMP. Another witty about the fact that the same biblical source the right uses to condemn homosexuality also condemns the eating of shell-fish - proscribing the same penalty: DEATH. So... if God hates fags and , he hates lobsters and shrimp - JUST AS MUCH. Enjoy that next shrimp fra diavolo you order!

The only thing about these two wonderful slogans that was kind of sad for me, was that the vast majority of didn't understand them.

Wonderful day at the Fogg
Had a wonderful day browsing around Harvard's (Free on Sat before 12:00)Fogg museum. Love the revolving stuff, you never know WHAT will be there. Spotted another Frankenthaler - The only abstract Expressionist I love and one of the best women painters this contry has produced.
