I'm not that much of an art buff (when it comes to painting, drawing etc. etc.), but I find Bosch's work extremely captivating. Not only is its historical context fascinating and downright perplexing, but the paintings are in themselves gobsmacking works of art and (observed from a distance, at least) surpass the efforts which were to be pursued by the surrualists in a more advanced age where our values and morals have been completely redefined and re-evaluated themselves. If we look at the work itself, Bosch is far more groundbreaking and inventive than the rest of these surrealists.
I discovered his work as it appears on the cover of numerous editions of books by Jorge Luis Borges.
-----------------------In May I shall be begin two posts which will become monthly regulars. One of them shall be called 'My state of mind' where I outline the state of mind I find myself over the course of a month and where I talk about my mood and events occuring in my life. I think that this will be a vital outlet as I no longer keep a diary. The other monthly regular shall be called 'The Remote Edges' where I shall post photographs of my weekly walks to the woods, parks and countrysides surrounding Dronfield. Keep your eyes peeled for both of these!
I have finally - after a wait of about a year - got back to writing fiction again. I have planned out four short stories, one of which has been finished and an another has been started. The one I finished is an attempt to create something even more perverted and sick and twisted than the 'David Crapper play'. It's called 'Penis Woman', and with this miniature I have gone beyond the bounds of depravity! Even the most tolerant, strongest characters will find themselves squeamish, faint-hearted and wanting to avert their eyes!
My laptop has finally been fixed, so I can get back to listening to my music and watching porn... :)
