I have a few favorite songs that are all by the same artist. here's a taste
Psychiatric Explorations of the Fetus with Needles
Cats killing dogs, pigs eating rats
Every mouth will eat you up the king bug laughs
Belly of the heart, belly full of bats
The chromosomes seem not to want the fetus
They beat you up
They make you leave
Sticking needles in your knees
Knowing God will be pleased
Should make it easy
Snakes eating frogs, toads eating gnats
When the space ship beams you up boy, get drunk fast
Rubber bullet barn, titty suckin' calf
Goats and roosters, bees and bugs, amoebas
They blow you up, make it breath
Make it feel like a disease
Though it's hard to believe it makes it easy
A Spoonful Weighs a Ton
And though they were sad they rescued everyone
They lifted up the sun
A spoonful weighs a ton
Giving more than they had
The process had begun
A million came from one
The limits now were none
Being drunk on their plan, they lifted up the sun
Forcing it off with their hands
The trap door came undone
Above our heads it swung
The privilege had been won
Being drunk on their plan, they lifted up the sun
Yelling as hard as they can
The doubters all were stunned
Heard louder than a gun
The sound they made was love

The Poem
I decided to choose a piece from Bukowski cause i tend to find his stuff enjoying and a bit funny. cliche, yeah. But i like him.
Bluebird by Charles Bukowski
there's a bluebird in my heart that
wants to get out
but I'm too tough for him,
I say, stay in there, I'm not going
to let anybody see
you.
there's a bluebird in my heart that
wants to get out
but I pur whiskey on him and inhale
cigarette smoke
and the whores and the bartenders
and the grocery clerks
never know that
he's
in there.
there's a bluebird in my heart that
wants to get out
but I'm too tough for him,
I say,
stay down, do you want to mess
me up?
you want to screw up the
works?
you want to blow my book sales in
Europe?
there's a bluebird in my heart that
wants to get out
but I'm too clever, I only let him out
at night sometimes
when everybody's asleep.
I say, I know that you're there,
so don't be
sad.
then I put him back,
but he's singing a little
in there, I haven't quite let him
die
and we sleep together like
that
with our
secret pact
and it's nice enough to
make a man
weep, but I don't
weep, do
you?

Summer '09











Top-bottom
1. This summer, I attended the Marie Walsh Sharpe Art Foundation at the Colorado College in Colorado Springs. It was an honor for me to be apart of such a great art program for high school students like myself. There were times that i felt i deserve to be here, but more often i felt like didn't really deserve it. I'm just grateful for being chosen to have an opportunity that many students like myself would kill for.
2. Acrylic Painting of Greg. He's one of the models who at first has the impression of a homeless person (mostly because of his dress appeal), but we found out that he's been a teacher and a fighter pilot.
3. Acrylic Painting of a woman
4. Acrylic Painting of another woman, that was a good day.
5. The only homework we had was to take 8 large pieces of paper (about 18x24 in), fold those into 16 squares each (128), and then paint each of the 8 sheets with a color and their hues. The other homework we had was a sketchbook assignment that we were given a week to do, and everyone did it the night before. i chose to do 1 of the 3 assignments that requires of me to draw a self portrait representing my traits or emotions.
6. I was beginning to become a bit tired of drawing and painting from observation all day, so when i was drawing my hand i decided to add an eyeball.
7. Again, i wanted to do something different from observation. So i did a drawing of a head blowing up. I sometimes find the sick minded ideas to be quite interesting and most fun to create.
8. It's probably not surprising that i have a nude piece. I first i thought i messed up drawing this, but then went with the abstract flow, try something out of my comfort zone.
At MWSAF we only had models with clothing on, there was no nudes. We couldn't even watch an R rated movie. So i had to go to hipbone when i got back to OregON.
9. Charcoal nude.
10. The process (large Thumbnail Sketch)
11. The Execution. This piece i find isn't my best work, but its one of the most personal and closest pieces to my loving heart. I have some things i want to add on to it though.
12. Back in business Baby!! planning on having it ready by Scholastic. The middle finger was the only one that didn't break off.
