Icon painting
If I'm attracted to Francis Bacon's paintings I could paint something "ugly" in a "beautiful" way.
Jade Goody's last supper is my most "successful" painting, I feel.
Tramps are ugly. People don't give a shit though - I need icons for my icon.
Katie Price is ugly.
I need icons/subjects people know.
Celebrities.
I don't want to recreate my Last Supper again.
Disfigurement. No, too obvious.
Erasing/whitewashing.
Obliviscor.
Removing recognition.
Women/men.
Children.
Self portrait.
Should I make it Jewish?
Is that important?
The eternal Jew.
Paint what you don't dare to say.
