The Last Supper 2012

hahaha… I must be insane!!! The birds are awake and the sky is blue and I haven’t slept yet! Lol… Better catch up on some zzzzzzzz’s. Thanks so much DDD. :-) xox

Thanks Bob! A bit weird I know… That’s what staying up all night does to the brain! Lol. :)

Thank you… I fell into a coma! hahaha. :)

Thanks mimi, it’s definitely a bit more time consuming and mind-stretching than some of my other pieces of work, but kinda satisfying once it’s finished! :)

hahaha! Do you reckon I should give McDonalds a call and offer to be their Marketing Agent? hahaha… Thanks walt. :)

Thanks Tars, hope the trip’s going well! :)

Awww you’re so sweet Adam, well I kind of slipped into a sleep deprived coma! I’m prone to doing that, going full on and then crashing into a heap for a while… An all or nothing kind of person! :)

hahaha… well it was a bit of a toss up between McDonalds and KFC for a while there… ;-)

It’s a McDonalds Fries Monster! The kind of thing you hallucinate after running on 30 plus hours with no sleep! hahaha

Thanks Shoi, I might try more of this type of thing, they’re fun to work on. :)

Thanks Mel, the work of an insomniac with a demented Mind. ;-)

Awww… Thanks Matt. :-)

You’ve never eaten McDonalds and then talked in tongues??? You don’t know what you’re missing! hahaha… Thanks Sticky. :)

I don’t usually go in for making political statements, but this idea just came to me so I had to keep working with it to see what turned up! thanks Wendy. :)

Thanks muchly Java! :-D

Hahaha, thanks Tracey, yep, you know when you start to hallucinate Fries running out of the door that you’ve just got to create a picture out of it! LOL ;-)

yep, I saw the zeitgest movie a couple of years ago, pretty intense viewing with some creepy undertones and messages for sure! I took what was interesting from it and discarded the messages of doom and gloom, I guess I’d prefer to think that Nukes act as a preventative rather than a resolution! Thanks bev. :)

this is what happens to your brain after days and nights of sleep deprivation… you start imagining French fries with legs running across the floor! hahaha… thanks Vim. ;-)

Ooooh!!! I felt my nipples instantly grow hard at the meer sight of your name! So good to see you around again excitablegirl! ;-)

yep… both contribute to bloated bellies, bank accounts and egos! ;-)
thanks Nicole.

it’s all in the way that you suck on the straw and nibble on the fries… ;-)

thanks midzing, I usually don’t have the patience to create something so time consuming! ;-)

thanks, I’ve only just started to work on pieces that make a kind of political statement, a bit more surreal, but they satisfy my inability to write a bit more, it would look an interesting piece framed and mounted as you suggested, I have some old, antique looking frames that I bought from an op shop once, one is plaster and golden, which would look quite good… And there’s plenty of holes in the walls I could cover! ;-)

hahahaha! reckon I should take it to McDonald’s and see if they’ll pay me royalties for advertising??? Lol… The things one creates with an overtired, demented Mind. ;-)

Thanks John, I had this concept stuck in my head for some time, it became a toss up between Mcdonalds and KFC… I guess Ronny won! ;-)

yep… my son decided he needed more ventilation around the place a while back… ;-)

Lol… I’ll bet you’ll hear that French Fry Scream when you put it in your mouth… hahaha!

Lol… I could always create a vegetarian version for you? thanks Jasmine. :)

For old time’s sakes… PRINCESS shit the comments crack me up on that piece! hahahaha
Thanks aglaia, this one sure tested my bloody patience! Lol… But it was one of those pieces I just had to stay up and work on until the end! :-) Gonna take my fat dog charlie for a walk soon… It’s sooooo embarrassing, people laugh at him, he looks like a barrel! hahaha xox

Yep, charlie looks like something you’d see on a jenny craig Ad! he’s a podgy, little jack russel and you can hardly see his legs, he’s getting a bit fitter with our daily walks though, even though they just about kill me!!! :-)

Sure… You can keep the ‘Change’. ;-)

awww… thanks Mel, now I have to think of another crazy idea… :)

thanks TWB, it was an idea that’s been stuck in my head for a while. :)

heehee… I almost put a pic of ronald on the wall in the background, but then I stopped myself cos I always tend to go that one step too far! thanks blamo. :)

oh 2012 stuck in my head because I think I read somewhere that some religious zealots believe that’s the year of the apocolypse or armegadon, so I thought it was fitting for a last supper at McDonalds. :-) Thanks helene.

Thanks Aurora, I appreciate your long-standing, loyal support. :)

I have no idea what your little emoticons mean???

‘oh dear’ as in it offends you? or ‘oh dear’ it’s crap! :)

Wouldn’t that be so crappy though if it happened to be your last day on earth and your last supper was McDonalds… ugh! hahaha. :-)

But the spider Fries are non-venemous. :-P

Hu????? hahahaha… you been drinking? :-P

lol… sounds like they work better than mine then! :-)

the ones I take keep me awake 24 hours around the clock! I guess that’s what you get when you ask for something non-sedating when you don’t want to turn into a zombie! :)

Lol… Well I’m a bit of a walking pharmaceutical myself…;-)

Did you get around to taking some new photos?

Oh I hope I’m not up until daylight again! I’m driving my partner crazy like a manic loon! Lol

Oh I meant to tell you, I think I can still create that twin towers image only using the fall of the roman empire/Pompei instead of the walls of Jericho. :)

Personally I dont think the meds do me much good, I’m pretty resistant to them and I tend to fight them rather than go with them, so I might slowly wean myself off them when I get the “OK” to. :)

okay. :)

Thanks Pascale, I love your Photo booth Pic you did a great job in photoshop! :)

Oh I’m sure I need them, they just don’t seem to do a hell of a lot for me is all. :)

ah… my brain kind of rebels against them I think! hahaha!

Thanks Rajeev, I appreciate your dropping by to say so. :)

oh shit… it was exhausting! I’m usually much too lazy to put so much detail and thought into something! hahaha! Thanks Karen. :) xox

Thanks Veronica, it’s always fun to add a new twist to old concepts. ;-)

thanks trace, hope things are going okay for you out there in the real world. :)

nah… I was pondering testing a few pieces for sale some time… not sure though, if your friend wants a copy in high res I can email you one if you want and she can get it printed out some place?

If only there were a way you could fill your Mind with more peaceful thoughts to counteract the flashbacks, I’ve experienced those myself, and the reality of them can be really frightening! Not sure if the coffee drinking does much to help though!!! I guess the nightmares are your subconscious’s way of trying to work through the process and heal itself, so painful as it is, suppressing them, chemically or otherwise, may not be such a good thing. Do you ever get day-time flash-backs while you’re awake? Shit, I got a few of those when I was in the hospital, and I swear to this day if the medical staff hadn’t told me they didn’t exist, that I’d still believe who and what I saw was real. The Mind can be such a crazy thing! Have you ever tried natural remedies and/or spiritual healing? I’m not that spiritual a person myself, but I’ve heard from others than it can be a really cathartic and healing experience for those who accept it.

Yep! I’ve read the post on your first gallery show! Such exciting news for you! :-))
Ah… The past is a wave we just have to ride until the seas grow calmer I guess, and yep, just as negative thinking can kind of take you over and become habitual, so too can positive thinking! I Fake positive thinking heaps until it begins to feel natural for me… which, thankfully, it’s starting to! Now I find myself smiling and laughing so much more, people think I’m stoned 90% of the time! Lol. :)

Yep, someone once told me that we ‘Think’ what we bring into our reality… Which I believe is so true, maybe that’s why not much is happening in my Life right now, because my brain is an empty vessel and I’m thinking of nothing at all! hahaha

Thanks so much Jim, when words fail me, all I have is a head full of pictures! :-)
I’m such a huge follower of your writing, you express human emotion and experience so perfectly.

hahaha… I don’t get scared that easily! And like peeing… writing isn’t something I can do on demand. Lol… Thanks for the tips though Jim. :)

oh… I did pee in a crowded urinal once a few years ago, but admittedly I was pissed off my skull and had stumbled into the wrong loo, so it didn’t phase me in the least, but yes, I think the concept of public peeing is kinda creepy and embarrassing, hell, I don’t even like going to a private public loo! :-)

I guess I could have always added a packet of Alka-Seltzer to the table… Or a stomach pump? :-)
Oh I just get all of these weird and random buzz words spinning around in my head, and the result is turning out weird shit like this.

Hahaha! Weird one AYE??? :-P X

Thanks Jane, I’m not sure it’s naked enough for eon though. ;-) xox

I haven’t got time to look through right now, but I’ll check it out later, I usually check my email once a day at night, so I’ll send you the pic asap, fuck I’m slack at checking my mail! hahaha

oh… the technicalities I can’t remember, all I remember is the relief I felt from having succeeded! :-)

Thanks BofR… Yep, I’m very anti-capitalism or any form of ‘Control’, financially or mentally. ;-)

Thanks TextureoftheSin, it was an idea I had spinning around in my mind for a while that was waiting to be created. ;-)

Thanks Varry, the image was buzzing around in my head for a while so I just had to find the ways and means to create it. :)

Ah… George Carlin told it as it was, pity he had to die before we got a chance to get married! ;-)

Ha! Thanks Naf4d… Could be my first attempt at making a statement through political art, or simply mean that I eat too much junk food and contribute to lining the pockets of The Machine… People can take their pic(k)... ;-)

yep! :-) thanks for dropping by tah.

oh i don’t know, McDonalds have a Special on their Combos this weekend, so it could be tempting for her! ;-)
thanks shadowlee, nope, don’t believe in fairytales either, but I still believe that laughter is the best medicine. :)

true… or one could say that it’s the drug companies that keep everyone laughing? ;-)

I guess one good thing about going through all of the bad stuff is coming through the other end and realising how so many things don’t really bother you any more… There’s a strange sense of peacefulness and a much lighter outlook to things, leastwise, that’s the stage I’ve somehow managed to come to.

thanks atomikboy, yeah, i love doing these collages when i can come up and run with some kind of theme.

thanks, I’ll check out your gallery later, from a brief glance it looks like your a Master @ photoshop! :)

thanks raymondo, oh it was just a jibe at money, greed and consumerism, a fun one to work on. ;)
