Mar 24, 2010: Painting People

xoxoxoBruce · 03-24-2010, 10:31 PM

I'd seen Alexa Meade's work on a couple websites. She paints people, on people, turning them into human canvases. Reminds me of the guy killing animals and covering them with clay to make sculptures. Yeah, OK, it looks different but them what? Take a picture? That kind of loses the impact of the three dimensional painting. Tell them to cross their legs and hold it until the showing is over? That's mean.

Then glatt sent me pictures of one of her paintings taking the subway.
Whoa Nellie, that puts it in a whole new perspective.

Look at the people looking at him. You know they are busting a gut wanting to give him the third degree, but leery of him being a homocidal maniac or something. I think he's having fun.
