This is it. This is really happening.

Deth P. Sun shall grace the showcase this evening, in a fit of calm glory.

I don't know what it's like to be the kind of person that draws things that sometimes ultimately, and inadvertently, other people have tattooed on their bodies. And I am momentarily stunned every time a friend receives word / photo that someone has had their lines forever-drawn on their skin. What is that like - Does that feel like anything? Maybe it feels like nothing, but then maybe it feels like a totally baffling new sensation. It's not as if someone memorized your song or hung your painting on the wall, but they had your lines permanently drawn onto their flesh.

WOW, right. So when I say that approximately twice a year Deth makes what I consider to be the ultimate painting, the manifestation of my spirit at the current moment, and encapsulating my life up to that point, then it will not surprise you that he is someone who makes art that others sometimes tattoo onto their bodies. Which kind of makes me feel like a bad friend sometimes. What are my claims, really, when they amount to wall hangings and desktop wallpaper.

Deth and I were born seven days apart and were both placed in Slytherin by the sorting hat. The alignment symbolized by these two seemingly small facts (time/culture) may be the reason for what feels like a symbiotic art cycle, but when I was feeling broken, Deth released the "Please Be Brave" paintings, and when I was feeling great in an all-encompassing way, there was the "I See It All" phase, and in-between that there are all the small shout outs to the same things that comfort me, the same insecurities, that same shrugs and the same needs. Tonight we release a print of over-lush flowers and starry nights, calm but overabundant sensations. And that's pretty much where I'm at these days.
