The Summer Day
... Tell me, what is it you plan to do
with your one wild and precious life?--Mary Oliver

my day is a transaction between the external and my internal world. Everything is raw material...Everything is usable
I am to pick out a them that makes my heart beat a little faster; makes me want to go further .... erotica is what comes to mind. I love doing erotica. I want to be able to create a beautiful painting with subliminal erotica. To date, I have not really be able to accomplish this.
As I read the list of possible triggers for Day 2 of this workshop, I am attracted to the following: hands, feet or face or other body parts; collage self portrait; a favorite shape; collage in general of anything; art journaling. But the subliminal erotica is what makes my hear beat faster and excites me while engaged.
So, in an earlier blog, I mentioned using images of my son and grandson -- perhaps, this will not be the case.
What comes to my mind when I think of erotica -- its fun to draw body parts; its fun to look at them; it's fun to imaging being those parts or touching them; its fun to imagine whether others see what I see or think what I think; is it about love or beauty? The images are hidden, yet oh so obvious when you mind goes there; the drawing is colorful and beautiful.
Erotica is sometimes with one person, male or female; sometimes male and female; female and female -- women's bodies are so beautiful; or a combination.
Erotica is my second pick -- tomorrow, I will discover what I will choose for my project!
