Jack and I have had several conversations about the two paintings. Both of us found them fresh and new and beautiful. I think of that bright-colored one as Demonic Creator. I see a primate in the center of it, which made me think that maybe he is the Prime Primate from whom all of us descend. The two big cat paws make him an extraodinry primate. Tiger, Tiger burning bright. The primal fire. The navel of power. The nothing turning into everything. Fire and smoke and fear, though the figure is not truly threateining except in his power which explodes out of him almost without his volition. And yet there's a bit of creation as a game. |
