My committee was sooo late for the co op meeting today. It wasn't just us Lusties, but a lot of different cooperatives (NOBAWC) brainstorming over goat cheese pizza and cornbread scones (but not about goat cheese pizza and cornbread scones). Now they're thinking about keeping the Lusty theater open for the video booths, but getting rid of the live show, at which point we may have the option of renting the live show facilities. Hopefully it will not entail the illegal practice of charging us stage fees, although no one at the Lusty would go along with that...It may mean using our sponsors' money for rent until we make enough off of the place to pay ourselves, our rent, and then some.

I love Waterhouse because he can create an 'atmosphere' in his paintings. They are sort of...blurry, but not. I love his choices of subject, often fae or mythical. I have always been fascinated by the untouchable and dangerous forms of seduction and sensuality, like Succubi and the consequences of sexual conference with a woman of fae origin. The Naiad is an awesome example. I love his 'ideal' of beautiful woman and wonder at who modeled for him.
I agree with the attention the pre-raphaelites paid to accuracy and realism. I'm actually not that much of an appreciator of abstract or modern art.
Pointilism is cool. I was not that artistic as a child. I was often scolded instead because I was obsessed with war as a child and loved to draw stick men battling each other and getting blown up. I never felt any automatic desire to draw my family in front of a house with a smiley sun.
I have been to the Louvre. Took me 2 days to see every room. And only because I ignored all the Christian-inspired art which bores me to bits. I didn't go to the D'Orsay but went to Rodin's instead. I love the female form and his statues of the female form are amazing. If I ever get to own a home of my own design, I'd like to put plenty of beautiful female sculpture in it. I personally feel closer to a fertile, nurturing Goddess than I do to a wrathful Desert & Mountain God.
Personally, I have a Swedish father and a Singaporean mother. I'm a real Eurasian
I am impressed and envious that you speak such good French. it's a beautiful language and sounds really good to rap in. My Swedish is 2 years old and impresses people with how good it is, but it's hit a glass ceiling and I don't work on it. I'm applying to Universities in the UK now and I hope to be there before this year is out.
Incidentally, I am a Swedish citizen and hold a Swedish passport.
