things have taken a strange turn. I have moved away from the raunch that i have talk up lately and just started to paint. It really is when i am the most comfortable. i need to remember that this semester is almost all book classes. Portfolio is the only art-making class that i am taking at the moment and my life is eaten up by my job and reading. and i just think too much. i know i need to formulate the vocabulary to ensure that i can get viewers to were i want them but it need to follow what i'm doing rather than trying to paint my big thoughts. is that why i can leave the drawn line behind? i'm just acting out the thought process that i spend the day rehearsing mentally. Natasha's mythology has me returning to work that i also developed around mythology. I apprenticed with a story teller regularly for ten years. Over the course of that time i developed a series of stories of angels. they weren't the same as the angels that my tradition roman catholic mentor anticipated. Winged beings cross over several cultures as messengers. my angels were just that winged beings with a message for me. Imagine a winged being arriving in your life and delivering exactly what you need to be well. guides that offer gifts, knowledge, directions, protection, comfort. many of the "love knows how to fight" series echoed these stories.

Those robed figures are intriguing, are they angels? Those and the two drawings remind me of part of a doors song haha from back in my acid rock days-
"Death makes angels of us all and gives us wings where we once had shoulders, smooth as ravens claws. Do you know how pale and wanton thrillful comes death on a strange hour, unplanned four, unannounced, like a strange overfriendly guest you brought to bed."
