ugh, Profiles are like regurgitation, it never tastes good the second time :)
At best, it washes down well with coffee.

I do need to take this page to heart
I suppose the "model" proposition below, is putting the cart before the horse;
too whom it may concern, All Apologies. [I think i'll check through fine arts for models and/or seek classes that are using models.]

Under any circumstances, i could not paint anyone without TRUST.
I may not be perfect, but i would not think to breach another soul.
If i have hurt anyone, it hurts me too.
As it is written:
The Tree of Life is a Wholesome Tongue.
And Heaven are the Ears of the Little ones.
and while i find this world so Horribly Corrupt,
i look for a woman to smell the roses.
This Wine hasn't gone to vinegar yet

Oh Lord these grandiose visions!
Surely there is another Star in the hemisphere of a Double-Aquarian.
Surely the dust of Orion has fallen upon another?


Here's the Deal,

I am looking for a woman that is willing to model draped, partially draped or undraped.
Posing nude is not a requirement and am certainly aware and do consider all concerns.
I do not entertain whoredom or vulgarity with my paintings.
I believe drapery in all the right places is even more enticing/alluring to the subconscience.
My Goal: my dream: dethroning Lucian Freud as King of Nudes in New York.
My training and studies and early paintings are in likeness to Freuds.
However, my color and depth theories with an appetite for the fringes of the abstract, i hope prevails the barriers for the broader market.
(i've painted or drawn hundreds of nudes in school and out; and to this day, have not touched one. The business of painting is sacred territory. It takes alot more than lust to realize the fruition of my mind. I am not above breaching this eternal covenant for all the right reasons, beautiful visibly and invisibly. There is no Fear in Love.)

Her savvy to express from within the theatrics required, will be marvelled.
She have a love for the Arts, somewhat intimately and secretly, if you wish.
She be open-minded to esorteric ideals, ancient and present.
She have a taste for the eclectic, garnished in the cultures abroad.
Above All, a girl next door that knows the way to Peace.
(Must admit, prefer women without or little make-up, grounded in her natural beauty.)

HOW LONG DOES A PAINTING TAKE? one might ask...

3 hours is quite realistic for time required; one sitting, possibly two, just depends on composition and content (stuff where i don't need a model)

Life Painting:
First Hour, is color mixing and tweaking lighting; upon a little talk, zeroing in on style and pose - having fun with it, amplifying ones character...it can be anything that comes to mind at the moment.
Second and Third Hour is painting in 20 minute intervals with breaks in between. The first twenty minutes is quite critical laying out composition; chances after 20, i might be a bantering twit or completely washed in the ethereal seas of light where you are no more than a reflection...lol, in another zone or something like that.
In the past, it generally takes 10 minutes to get into that zone - it's abit of a brainshift from one hemisphere to the other.

I love most art and the power of expression; the opportunity for visual language to purport without harm or offence, yet drive home passionately against the Worlds Wily ways.

BTW, Cow Painting, called "The Fence"(addressing private property issues in Vancouver), POF has kindly allowed me to keep posted. It seemed fitting for an agri-community. Unfortunately the digi-cam didn't capture all the colors, but sufficient for purpose rendered...blah blah blah

Anyways, i am not a celebrant of any day, nor esteem one day above another, but with this commercialized season before us,

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

i am rethinking this profile stuff:
i find self-justification condemning and the need lame, but gotta do it, sigh.
the brain gets constipated on this stuff, sigh.
I hate talking about myself: I know i'm bigger than this world: I know I Am Nothing.

i'm a nice guy who could care less what you own or have.
i've spent much of my life in study of the arts, religions
i'm the nice guy that will dance with the brain long before beauty.
sometimes, when i'm lucky,
i will make you laugh;
and the more i know you,
the more you will.

looking for someone, a smooth bird, nothing fast or fleeting
a sound mind and knows the ways to peace
i'd rather someone quirky or twitty, that can schmirk with me
simple, eh, ummm, ya.


I appreciate the enigma of Alternative music
I do love jazz or cello/violin alone or a wailing harmonica
Love the feel of rhythms worldwide
I'll listen to Leon Redbone or Tom Waits before anyone else, anyone.
I prefer live music of most genres,
but for the most part, i'm quite content with quietness.
I'll play guitar and harp with anybody or even sing.

anyways...
at the mo',
wish i could take romanticism a little more seriously in cyberspace,
but it's a start.

whatever works, will meet anyone...loves coffee'n yammer abit - sort it out...

Maybe grab a coffee and let me do a Oil Pastel Portrait of you...
(i need the practise and lol, maybe borrow your lipstick)
It would only take 5-15 minutes for a sketch.
I'm hoping to explore discord harmony themes and ascert a hunch for a triad.
Oil pastels was my favorite medium in school:
it can be quite dynamic or erotic
and for the audiences in Vancouver, it was exciting to watch.
...i dunno, something to talk about to no end while thoughts churl
