IMPALETTE - Canvas is cheap, art is priceless.

We all have our templates but his preferred medium is youth.
He harbours an umbral desire for creamy, soft skin and supple, red satin.
The intertwining of a pale sepia blush of innocence with the impure blossom of lust.
In his mind there is no discordance, they are as congruous as the instant of twilight.
That, is the point of his art.

We all have our implements but his preferred utensil is the scalpel.
Perfection is both his nemesis and his pain, and sculpture is his release.
As nature intended, everything is lopsided and grotesque; symmetry is blasphemy.
And in the slice there is an inevitable evolution where what is untruly beautiful becomes…vital
That, is the purpose of his art.

We all have our methodologies but his preferred approach is naked involvement.
He believes his own fallible form should reflect the splatter of his endeavours.
There is no greater symbiosis in his faith than life and death; reluctant giving and forcible taking.
Thus his canvas is juxtaposed to his hips, recumbent as an offering, flagrant yet flaccid.
That, is the pretext of his art.

We all have our creative visions but his preferred perspective is inside out.
He craves the hidden truth that is spectacularly revealed from asymmetrical carving.
For bone is a cream reflection of skin and blood is the red of prurient appetite…and pink is polish.
Where two exist one is better, where flesh is smooth a gaping smile is wanting; there is always a new line waiting.
That, is the prescience of his art.

We all have our external audience but his preference is for none.
He is a sculptor-lover, introverted to intimacy where creation is privation and its own reward.
Hence the initial smile, intuited by steel, from ear to ear, for sound and motion are distraction.
His essence is time. And dead, lines. And must be supple…Red…Satin…And Creamy…reaction.
His ideology: master craftsmanship is transient and unattainable. And wrapped in dark green plastic.
That, is the penalty of his art.
