Since I seem to be having trouble communicating lately. I thought I'd give everyone insight into who I am so that future misunderstandings may be avoided: I am a sensitive artist Nobody understands me because I am so deep. In my work, I make allusions to books that nobody else has read, Music that nobody else has heard, And art that nobody else has seen. I can't help it, because I am so much more intelligent and well-rounded Than everyone who surrounds me. I stopped watching tv when I was six months old Because it was so boring and stupid, And started reading books, And going to recitals and art galleries. I don't go to recitals any more, Because my hearing is too sensitive, And I don't go to art galleries anymore Because there are people there, And I can't deal with people, Because they don't understand me. I stay home, reading books that are beneath me, And working on my work, which no one understands. I am sensitive. Sensitive (John S. Hall) ------------------ Big A, little a bouncing B, The System might have got you, but it won't get me.
I too am a sensitive artist. I go to art openings not for the people (excellence is lost in the artworld nowadays, its all about WHO you know, BOO-HOO!!!)but for the free cheap wine. I never finish a book I start but I'm still sensitive. I have cable TV and cable internet, I rarely go out anymore I'm so sensitive. But the terrific truth is...man I've had damn good luck with the ladies because I am so sensitive!!! Life is good being so sensitive! ------------------ Whatever you want to do, you have to do something else first.
Are you a 100% positive that you're not just whacko? ------------------ stop posting my damn signature
I am The Artist formerly known as the Arteest. ------------------ Me fail English? That's unpossible.
I go to all those damn things! Lets see, Barbara Davis Gallery, gots cute mini beers and white wine. Moody Gallery, wine, sometimes beer. The Menil of all places has the cheapest white wine. Cheap,Cheap,Cheap! What up with that?! Infact, this Saturday aaaall along the gallery-shmallerie row off Kirby and Richmond all those punks will be there. I'll be there too, drinkin' and pissin'. ------------------ Whatever you want to do, you have to do something else first.
If that is the case then we probably have met or seen each other on Gallery Row. I noticed you mentioned the two most progressive galleries on the street. Are you the kleptomaniac lush everyone has taken off their mailing lists yet still continues to come to every opening? If so, I was always following you to make sure you didn't steal anything! ------------------ I am better than you.
Actually, that was me! HAHA! Good one 'ol boy. I'll see ya at Moody...Babs Davis is a grouch! Bless her little chain smoking heart! Also, Jesse Amado, well, he's a grouch too! Bless his little post-latin-american minimalist grey felt sculptured heart! ------------------ Whatever you want to do, you have to do something else first.
I am a Senstive Artist's brother I go to galleries and get introduced to sensitive artists as "my little brother" I force them to give me their dead fish handshakes Oh, how they hate conforming to mini mores like handshakes I am a Senstive Artist's brother I get left to talk to Sensitive Artists at gallery openings I am so boring and stupid, unworthy of their wit I am not a Sensitive Artist I like to look them in the eyes while they try to look over my shoulder to spot and be spotted When they respond to impress groupie girls, I like to counter their well-rounded intellect with "It's all about Language", And leave them no choice but to agree or stutter, then I look over their shoulder and muse about needing more wine....I'll be right back! It's fun being a sensitive artists brother.
oily, Barbara is more than a grouch (the stories I could tell)...however she did stop smoking. You will not see me at Moody...since I am out of that business and out of Houston. Hilarious about Amado! heyp, Are you really an artist's little brother? ------------------ I am better than you.

I saw Joe Havel speak at the MFA not too long ago. He did the curtain thing at the MFA right? I really liked that curtain, but not his table clothe thingies,kinda bland. But hey, I'm a nobody! Lets seeeee, does your sister do sculpture too? ------------------ Whatever you want to do, you have to do something else first.
Yes, Joe was commissioned to do the MFA entrance. He has one of the most unique foundry processes around. He was also featured at the Whitney Biennial, and of course the local sensitive artists in Houston cried favoritism. You've got to love that artist community.
Yup. Definitely gay. ------------------ "Ive seen more class at a Pig Humpin Contest ." -- moestavern19 makes headlines again, and in the process leaves little doubt as to what Saturday nights in his hometown of Lompoc, California are like.
mr oily, how do you know about the cheap wine at openings? et all, you are just jealous ------------------ Big A, little a bouncing B, The System might have got you, but it won't get me.
heyp, I know the answer, but I am drawing a blank at the moment. I have been racking my brain and cannot remember who your sister is. What is her work like? I could probably remember then. ------------------ Take an object. Do something to it. Do something else to it. " " " " "
Is it R.Hecker? Shes absolutely outstanding. I love all of her work. Is it L.Ludwig? The sugar trees are better than the wedding cakes in my opinion. Ok, i absolutely hate the wedding cakes but they sell don't they? Well, who is it?! ------------------ Whatever you want to do, you have to do something else first.
btw, Joe is the other brother. My sister is a mother now and hasn't had a show since. That is probably why you are drawing a blank. She does encaustic painting/drawing, with quite a bit of symoblism drawn from Buddhist philosophies, Physics, and visceral visions. Her last show was at the Jung center.
