Recently in The Artist Category

"The Artist" has drawn (no pun intended) our attention to his latest project, as usual it's not for the feint hearted (pun intended). It is all about good and evil, compare and contrast if you will. Available here as a web page, and also, here as a power point presentation for easy emailing to your friends.

Exciting news for all you fans of art, and monkeys, and cheese. The all new comic "The Contacts" is available right now in new "ongar vision", just follow the link:

The Artist wanted me to pass on this piece, which has been seriously edited, to you all illustrating what he did on his bank holiday weekend. This evening of debauchery culiminated in him losing his assets during a game of poker. Then he ran amuck in Soho and blew the rest of his money on cheap women (Jarman) and cheaper wine. Shame I couldn't be there really.

If you ask nicely I'll wo-sham-bo you for the real pictures.

Earlier this morning the artist handed over a copy of the canvas he sent to Marijke Logan for her recent anti-war show in Arizona.

Click on the image for further pictures and his commentary on the painting.

Yesterday afternoon after a particularly heavy sesh the night before the artist woke to find he had a new mail from one of his old Stuckist associates and mucker Gary Braker-Johnston (from the "Fitzwilliam Massive"). Here is the corresponding dialog�

Ahh... Gary ... so nice to hear from you. But you're a photographer? Stuckism is about painting, sculpture � the real art� not the nonsense you produce (photos of cheese! � my arse).

Quoting " Braker-Johnston " :

No my man, it's about love and death, speed, ecstasy madness, music, peace, flowers, piss-poor poetry...probably.

What then, in thy mind, didst thou have?

Bring on your puny drugs !

P.S. How did you know my name? Have we met?

Yep... one of those summery hazy nights last year at the Rosicrucian neophyte party ... you were high on mescalin and were telling us about your photography and your days at Middlesex... or something like that...
... You gave us your email address on a used banana skin I seem to remember...

hmm..

Quoting "Braker-Johnston" :

Oh fuck me yes YES!. I hope I wasn�t sick. I usually am. Haven't seen Matt for ages. I think he ran off to Cornwall when world war III started (twit). We should meet up again, I vaguely remember you...

Me and Jonny two-beers are going to see the Buffs on the 25th, why not come? Punting party this Fri also. meet at the Alma pub after 5 (it's where you can toss dice for the rounds HA HA). Where was that party? I think we must have crashed it.

Oh come now Gary! On the lawn of some museum, I believe (the "Fitzwilliam"!? or something
like that -can't quite remember myself) - you worked there I believe, telling us how you'd like to bed Ms Hudson whilst the head boy Morris stood over and jizzed his load, or was that the friend you were with (all becomes blurry now).

Yes you were with your friend Mr O (the one who was into monkey sex).

Anyway, after you did some peyote, Mr O went on a bender � pissing on cars and the like... telling us how he'd like to ram some cheese up a Polak.

Hmm... But then again, it could all be the drugs playing havoc.

As for Friday - I'll be visiting my father in Daneland. Maybe back in a few weeks...

Catch you later!

IVC? .... what are you on about now Mr Johnston?

Quoting " Braker-Johnston " :

GET STUCK!!!!!

And that was the last we heard from him� looking forward to our next meeting sometime in the near future� no doubt.

Marijke over at journalspace has finally put pictures from her art show onto her online gallery.

Well worth a look!

This Sunday I was busy in NoFear's Headquarters - see picture - having a few jars with all the team. What a busy few months we have ahead, not only will more of our resident artists comic be emerging soon but there will be an incredible rash of film reviews on their way!

The artist came round this weekend with another couple of canvases. Getting a little concerned about his behaviour. Must check with his GP (again) that he's still taking his medicine, seeing as the dodgy old tosser never tells me the truth about it. grrr. artists eh?

This came about after the artist and I had a particularly heavy session at the Cambridge Beer Festival (report to follow next week). It is part one of an ongoing comic strip, enjoy!

Ah, good old artist, he left me a canvas whilst I was away for the weekend. This one is entitled "Greeting the Liberators..."

We'll have enough for an exhibition soon!
