Laughing too hard here. And no sorry needed!

It is good thread and makes a change to discuss favourite artists. I had completely ignored garthknight link - it was good to see that one. I remember another person a while back recommend those works... it is good to see recommendations again.

Peace

Sorry to hear about your HD. Mine went floppsy a few weeks back but I had a little warning so I went and invested in an external HD and transferred everything onto that.

Then I went and lost the external HD in the process of moving the contents of half my house for redecoration. *sigh*

Passions of a Goddess is Interesting ! Not an area (of art) that I had paid any attention to previously but I am NOW !! Very powerful imagery. Quite close to what I imagine you were referring to in the OP too.

I had not known of Kushner previously. Very vital and artistically committed, it would appear. Reminds me rather a lot of some of the medieval works I studied for an art degree about a thousand years ago. The art degree, not just the period.

No pun intended on the work.
I - actually not sure if 'like' is the word - am taken with the work 'Birth of the Mhhffmhff Venus and the Death of Europe'. Gagging order imposed in case the Gross Police wade in with blacktape and razors. Then again, I am not certain we are not supposed to like art. We are supposed to be moved by it. If we are, and in so doing come to like it, terrific ! I am moved by some of his work. Thank you for that, dark. you made me think.

And de Villiers we did know. Steel likes some of her work style and uses it as inspiration for photoshoots.

bondage and art? Bondage IS art!

Being a rope fiend I firmly stand by this: I am an artist, rope is my medium, the human form, my canvas; I've never met a canvas that wasn't beautiful in my rope.

Well, THAT told us, dark !

Just joking, D ... I read your journals yesterday - actually BEFORE you joined the thread - I am so very happy for you and your family.

What do you think of the work in the shibari link posted earlier in the thread ?

The shibari black and whites were amazing. I wish I could photograph as well as I tie.

Thank you so much, SilkanSteel for your warm wishes to my family.
