  • Fire Marie

    Fire Marie

    I am very interested in your decision to submit this to the Gender? challenge.
    I’m not going to remove it because I know enough about Kurt to know he fits in there hehe. But this picture doesn’t really express it beyond the flowers!

    I’d love to see your rendition of the “In Bloom” video. “nice bit of skirt” eh? LOL

    Seriously I’d die to see you do Kurt twirling like a ballerina wielding a guitar. I’d even commission you if I wasn’t poor as fuck! So know if you do use that Idea it will get featured in ALT and Mad Hatters. XD And SOMEONE would definitely buy it immediately lol

  • AnitaInverarity replied

    Thank you FM :)))) I did wonder if Kurt would fit, he did push that boundary so I took a chance, but I know its just quite an ordinary blokey pic of him, so I wouldnt mind if it was removed.
    I would love to do him again sometime, he fascinates me so much, a beautiful subject. Thank you for the ideas- I agree that sounds awesome. xxxxxxxxx

    sad how some get lost in their dream that becomes a nightmare?too young to go home, but depression is a killer,being lost is a killer too,fame comes at a very high price, cus what you do becomes so much bigger then who you are, lovely drawing of a talented young man-as they say?there but for the grace of of god go i

  • AnitaInverarity replied

    Thank you so much Walt, he was an extraordinary talent and unfortunately also a beautiful but troubled soul. It makes me very sad to think how much more he could have created before being lost xx
