ROMEO IS BLEEDING

Mixed Media/collage on Canvas

Okay, everyone knows I can’t keep a F’nkn secret very long. This is my themed painting project I have been working on; Paintings influenced by Tom Waits’ songs. I have seven completed (I posted 5 of them) I have to take pictures of the last two I did, ‘Romeo is Bleeding’ and ‘Pasties and a G-string’.

I’m not sure how many I will do, but as my close friends know, I am a monster fan of his music, I often refer to him as GOD. I have always been opposed to THEMED SHOWS but I really didn’t want to show in Sioux Falls anymore and I needed a niche. It is something I have thought about for a long time and thought it was appropriate. I’m currently working on trying to get a show in San Fran or Minneapolis, will see how that goes.

The one I am working on now is ‘Buzz Fledderjohn’s Yard’ (sp?)

This one is my first in the series:

I feel kind of bad for Terry. I heard a rumor the other day what his health condition might be, and I wouldn’t wish that on my worst enemy, or especially an artist.

This was a letter to the editor the other SCOTT wrote about 10 years ago about me, because he was getting flack because of my letters to the editor.

I wrote him a personal letter that told him I wasn’t a ‘newcomer’ to South Dakota and my family has been here for over a 100 years.

Wah!

Here’s some video of the Berge’s Blues Bashers playing at Touch of Europe on Friday
