Studio notes about #2, July 2005


#2, July 2005

July 4, 2005. Lac Ouaureau, all day.
The burning, driving demanding hunger of my phallic body…

Late afternoon
Start work on #2, July 2005.
Remember 1954, [see it here] and paint it now.
How does it look? Well, now it looks like this painting
and that dark thing’s the dick.

 July 5. Morning.
Next on #2, July 2005:
Light and blood, they’re in my belly yet.

July 6. Night.
Last on #2, July 2005:
And above, like an eye to be sure I do it right,
the eternal sun in “spiritual” blue.
Now it’s a complete self portrait—the me to live by.
