For DAVID PARKIN 21 days ago, David wrote me this Bmail: Hello again, Thank you for your reply. I would like to ask you to take a look at this This is my Son Daniel. Daniel died of Meningitis a couple of days after this photograph was taken. This is the one and only image I have of him, all others were lost a few years ago after a fire in the house. Would it be possible for you to do something with this for me please? Regards / -David I was brought to tears reading this…and it just so broke my heart . I too have lost a son…Allen Keith…..he didn’t make it to his first birthday…. / ...anyways, THIS ONE’S FOR YOU DAVID!! Hope I did justice to Daniel / I am deeply honored and inspired to do this for you!!! the baby’s body is from stock />here’s Daniel’s original photo:

thanks so much ROMO / for allowing me to play with your image: / / from Romo’s picture of DC, / to the manipulative entrails of my PC… / distortions…using grid meshes and a perspective plug-in / digital paintings… the sun and the birds of sin, / dodges and burns and many a transparency, / to create the disturbed sky of mystery… / a dab of color enhancements and camera flares, / to constitute that dramatic effect imbuing nightmares… / channel mixers and noise reductions, / threshholds, 3d effects and tone corrections… / all constitute the creation / of this incubus amalgamation / of the horrific tribulation that besets / that Person in office…, yes in sorrow he frets….

healing slowly as I traverse the path of the broken hearted….. A special thanks to Dale Crum for the inspiration and the title…. stock credit: / MJRANUM for the wrestlers, / and faestock for the beach scene “Poison –BY—Love” / BY: Dale Crum / Betrayal… the blackest of black… and vilest of vile / When love abscesses… and festers a while / Blood smeared grins… unseen in the night / Sinking mud up to chins… embedding our plight / Wings snapping to pieces… and feathers on fire / Believing we trusted… false waters grew higher / Foaming up putrid lies… blinding our eyes / Curved fraudulent fangs… piercing our thighs Bleeding our soul… of the poisons of love / Lest ye never again… know the cooing of doves / For the fruit of the evil… putrefies all the rest / Forced holding of cards… all too close to the chest / Now therein lies the rub… Oh to trust once again / Of black flapping wings… wrenching back weary chins / Then how shall we conquer… this fear of the fire / When a stirring is heard… of wet embers desire? If we no longer venture… toward the warmth of heat / For dread of the burning… of betrayal’s repeat / Then do they win… those who ripped out our hearts / And keep us from feeling… romantic knew starts / How could we allow… them to steal more our joy / When we are no longer their… whimpering toy / So rise up from the muck… and wash off the mire / May our cooperative venture… new lovers inspire!
for AlexMac / Alex is amongst the angels active in helping little Chloe and I believe I can speak for all that Alex is truly heaven sent her picture: / stock credit: / FAESTOCK for Alex’s body
Patina (ˈpa tə nə) is a film on the surface of bronze or similar metals (produced by oxidation over a long period); a sheen on wooden furniture produced by age, wear, and polishing; or any such acquired change of a surface through age and exposure. On metal, patina is a coating of various chemical compounds such as oxides or carbonates formed on the surface during exposure to the elements (weathering). Patina also refers to accumulated changes in surface texture and colour that result from normal use of an object such as a coin or a piece of furniture over time. / Patinas are restricted to exposed surfaces and are fragile (that is, they can flake off). One reason bronze is so highly valued in statuary is that its patina protects or passivates it against further corrosion. This natural patina is solid and seldom shows a tendency to flake. Brass is also resistant to corrosion, but it is, in the long run, not as attractive since local pitting shows against the shiny background. / source: Wikepedia Dictionary :http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patina credits: / MJRANUM for the torso / water and textures (photographs and digital paintings) by yours truly. © 2009 jokiargu creations / All rights rederved

...and the dark abyss moveth… / inchoate particles, collide…becometh, / into an array of myriads of iotas.. / speckles of alphas ,betas and omegas, / conglomerations, molecules, fragments, / conceiving sensuous yet magical moments… the glorious elements…. / spectacular movements, / against odds, decadents / first, expeditious, then dilatory currents… water, the thirst alleviator…, / earth, the foundation, the litigator, / and there’s the abominable fire, / seething with passion, longing and desire…, / the anemophilous , gusty wind, / puffing, blowing, dusts of lights to attend… elements of existence, / in accord with the Great Existence, / all in a trance and in a colossal chorus.. / forming, creating, both the miniscule and the macros…. (my first experiment by collaborating with another artist) the lay-out was made in photoshop then I exported it to corel X3 to digitally “paint” it in several layers ,added in amorpainter’s images, manipulated them in photopshop….back to X3 for the finishing touches… thank you so much Dick (amorspainter), / for lending me both “symetrie” and “devotie”...as the focal figure in this compo!!! see it in silver: / seeamorspainter thanks again Dick!!!
