Speaking in Pomegranates by Soxy Fleming

Posted on June 05, 2008

First I said

then Zolton said

Then I told her that the meaning was within the fruit so then she said

and I just had to reply with

Please join in this very enlightening conversation

    persephone… whereforeartthou … I think we share an obsession!

  • Soxy Fleming:

    Ok Kathleen, show us your Pomegranates then….add your own pictorial offering to the Gods!

  • Zolton

    Zolton

    I guess, to sum it up, you must get ducky with your inner fruit. It’s the only way to true enlightenment.

  • Soxy Fleming:

    guess so…but I want more pictures! go Zolton, you speed photoshopper!

  • Zolton

    Zolton

    I get the general irony of a duck with a horn that makes a duckish honk noise, but he’s having fun.

  • Soxy Fleming:

    thankyou Zolton! Obviously heralding the rising of the Pomegranate

    Behold my entry in the Painters In Modern Times Competition

  • Zolton

    Zolton

    ha ha… that was my original idea (well, not with Mona)! Well done.

  • Zolton

    Zolton

    Form and function makes a lady.

  • Soxy Fleming:

    Yes, The Lady is made of Form, Function…and the fire within…

    Zolton I knew you would rise to this challenge. If only we could get a heap of people talking in pictures

  • Zolton

    Zolton

    Me not see new picture here! Where me find? I talk like caveman when me need get sleep. Sorry I have not been more serious… and for any typos. This post is sponsored by SCAP (Stop Cruelty to Pomegranates) a fund created to end this sort of thing.

  • Soxy Fleming:

    get some sleep Zolton! that video is a scream, thankyou. More Mona Art

    6 pomegranate seeds sealed Persephone’s fate to return to the Underworld each year. The food of love…or death? Personally, I’m not that keen on the taste. A wonderfully loaded image though!

  • Soxy Fleming:

    I think the taste is quite nice, sharp, but there just isn’t much there to actually consume. Goodness knows how Persephone survived on just 6 seeds. When I cut this one the juice flowed out so I had to arm the model with tissues. maybe I should have let it bleed on her hands. Love or Death? ah I guess that is the point (they are the same thing) thankyou for adding to this strange little journal

  • Zolton

    Zolton

    Georniana’s special request…

  • Zolton

    Zolton

    Dammit… i spelled your name wrong. Boo!

  • Soxy Fleming:

  • Zolton

    Zolton

    That sounds like gelatin

  • Soxy Fleming:

    sure does, yum! must try making it

  • Soxy Fleming

    Soxy Fleming

  • Anne van Alkemade

    Anne van Alkemade

  • Rob Milsom

    Rob Milsom

    I’ll try and think of something witty… I may be quite some time!

  • Rob Milsom

    Rob Milsom

  • Zolton

    i am now completely inspired to learn how to use Photoshop…given that i can only just about take photos i could be a while…all the good pomegranates will be eaten up by then leaving a couple of small wrinkly ones going mouldy in the bottom of the bowl….

  • Soxy Fleming:

    the pomegranate tree will always bring forth new fruit (or we will move on to pineapples maybe!) get onto that Photoshop…I only started on it about 6 weeks ago

  • Soxy Fleming

    Soxy Fleming

    ooohhhh, Zolton and Georgiana…you left out the ORGANIC bit!!!

  • Marilyn Brown

    Marilyn Brown

    Con(Pome)gratulations what a fantastic thread!!!

    Love the Mona Series

  • Soxy Fleming:

    thank you…it all started over your way so thanks for that!

  • ytsumner

    Hello there Georgiana and other photie imagey people.
    I share this pomegranate thingy too…but I do it with words

  • Zolton

    Zolton

    Now I just couldn’t help myself. Soxy! Make a picture. These are 100% organic fruits.

  • Soxy Fleming:

    Zolton! I’ve missed you…been getting some sleep have you?
    Yes I must get cracking…and I’ll give Soxy a bit of nagging…

  • Soxy Fleming:

    well here is some action for you Zolton! love those dancers! so…organic

  • Soxy Fleming
  • Soxy Fleming

    Soxy Fleming

    me again…have a look here
    at my pineapple art from long ago

  • silverdollar

    silverdollar

    OK, OK-My solemn promise is to learn exactly how to insert pomegranates into my art-now I know what I have been missing, my life is incomplete………..

  • LetThemEatArt

    LetThemEatArt

    Pomegranates are not the only fruit…

    (hope this works!)

  • Zolton

    Zolton

    Hee hee. Yes… I have been getting more sleep and was kidnapped by co-workers and forced to sing karaoke much to horror of the entire establishment that we were haunting. I have no shame. My, what a lovely PommyGranny. Good job, Soxy!

  • Soxy Fleming:

    and we have another taker…but LetThemEatArt is having technical difficulties with the fruit

  • Zolton

    Zolton

    Oh, dear. Hope LetThemEatArt didn’t eat the art before we had a chance to view it. Here is a guide that someone was nice enough to post.

  • atomikboy

    atomikboy

    Didn’t some dumb chick eat this and fuck up somehow!!!

  • Soxy Fleming:

    yep…let yasemin tell you all about it (her link above)

  • LetThemEatArt
  • LetThemEatArt
  • LetThemEatArt

    LetThemEatArt

    Double duh!

  • LetThemEatArt
  • Soxy Fleming:

    hurray! well done! bit of a droopy old pair of pommes those two….more, more…

  • Zolton

    Zolton

    Oh my god! LetThemEatArt has succeeded. That is f@#*tabulous!

  • Soxy Fleming

    Soxy Fleming

    why Zolton! you are a redhead, just like Soxy

  • LetThemEatArt

    LetThemEatArt

    Just to show that I’m not completely fixated with breasts, in the interest of balance here’s another fruity one…

  • LetThemEatArt

    LetThemEatArt

    But on the other hand, breast/fruit comparisons are often irresistible, assuming olives are fruit that is (?)

  • Soxy Fleming:

    Thank you LetThemEatArt (that’s quite a mouthful to type you know) that olive one makes me wince, but yes they are fruit. And Soxy will like those shoes. Inspired by you I am about to start a new visually interactive journal where we shall all be able to Speak with Spirits….

  • Soxy Fleming

    Soxy Fleming

    wonderful shoes that banana girl has LTEA and very nice olives the other girl has too (and a good hat)

    I dug up an old sketchbook and found ………..

  • jomash

    jomash

    Death by pomegranate.

  • Soxy Fleming:

    wonderful! Thank you! I shall alert the other players! lovely to have you here…you have …scissors????

  • jomash

    jomash

    I usually have scissors in the kitchen drawer but when i look they are never there ?

  • Pascale Baud

    Pomegranate :
    in french = “grenade” (the same word for the fruit & the bomb… )

    It’s a great exchange of images !!! I don’t have pomegranate in hand but only roquefort ! :)) It smells very much… ! it’s a secret weapon !

  • Zolton

    Zolton

    Wow! That’s quite an image. I am taking a break from Photoshop this week and must drag out the scissors!

  • Soxy Fleming:

    I seem to be taking a break from everything for the moment….must get onto something again soonish

  • Jazzdenski

    Jazzdenski

    There I was, minding my own business, replying to kind comments when a diversionary click onto this mad parade of pomagranate mania took over. But no, I must return to my work, this Photoshop jerk cannot hope to succeed in ths multi layered festival of fruity frivolity. I retire, fruitessly, unsatisfied.

  • Soxy Fleming:

    do not be discouraged! pomegranates come to everyone eventually (I was given a pomegranate tree for christmas!)

    ArtSlut
