I had fun, the woman I dropped it off with at the event the other day said, "Oh, yes, I think I've heard of your art,", that comment made me laugh because I clearly caught her in a lie because everyone knows I'm simply a hack writer, and the whole rain barrel affair helped raise some bucks for journalism scholarships. All good, all around.
Here's some pics of my creation. I was feeling happy, and, yes, a little faggy. It's good to feel faggy, fellas. The colors are brighter and happier.
The top...
The side...
The other side...
The otherer side (cylinders are hard to pin down, sidewise)
1 smart alecky remarks:
I gotta tell ya', I don't find the painted rain barrel as "faggy" because I have no idea what that actually means. Do you mean to say it looks like it was painted by a homosexual? Homosexuals have no claim to a style of painting as far as I have seen. It does look rather like it was painted by an unimaginative elementary school aged little girl who only did it because it was an assignment, and she wanted a passing grade. I find the rain barrel project kinds weird, but if it means less shit dumped into our drinking water, I'm for that. But why paint it at all. Were I so assigned (and I was kicked out of a painting class back in my college days), my 1st thought would be to paint it to look like a cylinder of rain water with a few "fallen from the sky" type floaters in, OH! and maybe a couple of floating post-it notes suspended in the reain water. "PUT RAINWATER HERE" lettered on one and "NO SHIT ALLOWED" on the other. Then again, that is just silly old me. I have never claimed Tengo el alma de un rebelde adolescente del Latino. Had adolescente del Latino painted the rain barrel... well, that just wouldn't happen, Amigo. Heyyyy wuuzzzup Essa?
