'Helen fed her multiethnic head with world music while dancing in the melting pot!'

If you've ever gotten that three flavor icecream - vanilla, choclate and strawberry - and let it melt together in patchy swirls, then you know what this melting pot painting is about.Swirling colors and sex. That is after all what icecream in an adult's life is about - a substitute for sex or a prelude to sex. The UN milennium conference was going on while I painted much of this piece, and it is a well known fact that many people from different countries were eating many different flavors of icecream TOGETHER!

I've been complaining to Mrs. Breen for the past few months about how difficult it's been to find a decent Jesus hand puppet. I want to wear the puppet while I paint in front of my webcam, so it looks like Jesus is breening!

The other day Mrs. Breen brought home a dog puppet, tossed it into my lap and said she thought it would make an interesting Jesus if I breened him good. Of course, now that he's done, I feel compelled to sell him, as I do with anything i have of value.The back of the puppet says,'Jesus, the dogface Saviour!'

This piece is about my perception of Charlton Heston and his current incarnation as a seemingly rabid progun mouthpiece. The wording say's - 'Sick of being typecast as holy, Charlton Heston shot and killed God!' God/Jesus says, I forgive you Moses, you always were a hothead! The NRA commandments say, 1) Thou Shalt Kill. 2) Keep Your Hands Off My Guns! The writing on part of the commandments is kind of illegible as I painted them while driving in the car. God is based on a goose and doesn't look all that tough, though as the ultimate being he should. I find it really hard to paint God - he's just too big for my little canvas! I've got to work on that more.

Charlton Heston used to broadcast a godlike aura to those of us old enough to remember the 10 Commandments. However, he's kind of killing it off - committing a kind of religous cinematic icon suicide. Maybe that's his intent. This delicous public squandering and destruction of one's image is the ultimate act of self-breenishment! To bid on this breen go here.

I've spiffed up my page and gotten a webcam to work on the front page with an 'include'. For those of you who are as dimwitted as I, and don't have a brilliant brother to fix things, your index page may have to read shtml rather than html! It updates every 60 seconds and I guess I'll waste plenty of time sticking juvenile things in front of the camera! I'll still broadcast from time to time as I'm painting for the 1 or 2 of you out there who are interested.

I've gotten quite a few entries on my golf theme contest, and you can see them HERE. I'll decide within the next couple of days!
