re: my first artwork of the new year!


Greetings friends, fans, lovers, fighters, foe and the like,

i have called this piece, "Kamloops if F**King Evil" for a variety of reasons. none of which i'll disclose for you, as you have not likely lived there. suffice it to say, i've had some very challenging times there, and do not regret leaving, but it's like an ex, it'll always be there, it'll have strings attached and it won't always be a functional relationship, but to say i've survived is reward enough for me.........

so, off to a great start in the new year, with a new artwork finally, a new job, and a new city that's treating me just FINE! i wish the best to you in this New Year, and hope you get whatever it is you would like.....and i hope you survived the holidays in time for more abuse! ha ha!

life is good people, never forget that.........even when it sucks!

cheers,

cb
ps: i made it overtly devvvvlish for no particular reason, but after i had finished it, remembered, it was originally going to be a send up about former minister of Culture/Art/Prisons Kevin Krueger, but then realize, the women were beautiful, and he was not, and decided to change the piece entirely........plus on the piece i did a few posts ago, with the pope upside down, someone remarked that "they got it," and it reflected satan or religion upside like an upside cross.......i could only reply, "if only that's what i really meant!" but i didn't, i just thought the pope looked scary and put him upside down......which shows you how art is about personal interpretation, based upon personal experiences, which is how people tend to validate art in the first place............
