This painting has a story. I little
social story, I would say. First off, I painted it with the purpose. It is
funny already because when it comes to art, the name of the game, as I
understand it, is vanity. But my purpose was vane, too - a gift to my dear
friends and relatives in Moscow, a couple in love. This is where the “bzzz”
usually occurs; meaning that painting with the back thought of pleasing others
is not a good idea. Anyway, the result
turned out to be surprising. I went to school too, you know, not for painting
per say, but for architecture, and therefore learned a “good taste”. This
painting defies it, I admit. I posted it on FB, as usual, and one of my former classmates
commented, “SHIT!!!” I thanked him for honesty, and he replied, ‘U G L Y ! !
!”
And then I received a private message
from the protagonists of this painting asking me to remove it from the public
domain. Their acquaintances started asking them questions about the status of
their relationships…
This story convinces me that the
painting is worthy of public attention; meaning yours
