The portrait of Jade
Gift Art
Acrylic on canvas.
Today I had applied a covering picture varnish over it
before giving it away, and because my camera isn't good at
taking photos of my paintings, as
they appear blurred I paid £3 just to have the photo taken
at a photo shop, while I was in the photo shop, I was happy
to have phone me up
today and decided will do her painting after I have done the
Annual THINK PINK V Contest** digital 3D, Miss P's I want to
do as an oil painting as I
prefer oils, and it would be sent to the USA, will also
contain a strand of my hair in it
Finally complete , where I can start on something new. Just
waiting for the paint to completely be dry before I I put a
sealing varnish spray over it to
protect it. It is also biometrically identified by me with
having a hair strand which has been put in the pain on her
hair in the picture. Also like my
previous one GLS it also contains a hidden flying saucer See
if you can spot it.
Work Progress::
It is starting to come alive now since I have completed the
sky which still needs a bit of touching up. Here Jade is on
a planet that very much follows
the orbital ways of Pluto (pseudo planet) and Chiron, That is
the planet is not the centre and the moon orbits the planet
like that of the Earth and the
Moon, but both planets orbit an empty space of nothing , but
a gravitational something in the centre. Both planets, the
one Jade is on and the one
viewed in the sky are worlds containing life. The cloud
above Jade's head accidentally turned out to appear like a flying saucer which I will elaborate
that. The work that really needs doing are the trees and
leaves, and nearby flowery exotic from Earth vegetation,
based on a photo shoot down at the
park of the close up of the flowery gardens which I will
later share as stock.
This picture has already developed a controversial story to
it, in relation to people not understanding art, and the
conformative programming of
society, and almost got arrested by the police because of
it.
First of all as some of you know I have been working most of
this week with the part time cleaning job, as I have been
filling in the place of one of my
co-workers place while she is on leave or holiday. Well this
morning I had been working, and had to leave work at a
specific time to be at the job
centre at 12:30 to do my sign on with the job seekers
allowance, as well produce my payslips on the work I had
been doing, so I would be paid on
Monday, even if I wished to stay a bit longer to help the
other person i work without so we both finish on time, as
she was just on the last bits when I
had to leave, but wished to stay to finish off like normal .
I had taken my painting with me since i found no point of
walking back home and then
walking to the art studio work group, where the place I work
is a halfway point between the place of venue which was at a
museum and home, and the
job centre was a geographical step before where the art
studio was being held. The painting had been covered with
tin foil and placed in the celler
where all the drinks were to be out of the way so no one
could accidentally damage it. I was worried for it being
covered since the paint was still sticky
even when it is Acrylic, because I had been using a blending
medium gel of an oil base to produce better results in its
completion stage.
After work I went to the job centre with my bag with all my
papers (job centre stuff) paints, brushes and painting , took
off the tinfoil to see if it was
still in tact , which it was with a sigh of relief. Walking
through the shopping mall , passing all the shops, people
through the market square , past the
banks , round the corner towards the job centre. Walked in,
and handed in the papers and payslips, was asked to sit down
and wait to be called for the
sign in.
I got called , put the painting on the table in its portable
easel which the Art Studio has lent me, and did what I need
to do without bothering anyone
else, like every other day I had been there. Apparently one
chap at the job centre came in and complained that one
person found the painting to be
offensive. My response was "I am going in a few seconds, and
I am not bothering anyone and just doing what I need to do,
if they don't like my
painting, they need to be mature and stop bothering me about
it as if they ignorant to human biology and design. I do not
bother other people if I find
something I do not like about others." Then his response
was.. what about children in here.. My response was well its
up to the parents to educate
there children about the biology of the human body, no point
in hiding it and creating children to grow up into ignorant
adults, and general statistics of
it all there children have suckled on the mammary glands
when there mothers had been feeding them., I do not see the
point of it all, it is art, the only
way one can perceive something offensive is when there
consciousness is offensive. " He stared speechless..,
finished signing off, smiled and walked
out. I was rather jumpy, since when he approached me, he
came up from behind. I naturally am afraid of men when they
do that to me since it recalls
memories back to the days of my rape incident, as well as a
defensive reflex mechanism I have which my mind has created
so that I would be more
flexible and motor responsive if I should experience such a
danger again, and flee.
Then I went off to the Art Studio where it had been held at
the museum, arrived and there was a meeting. Derek(chap in
charge of the Art Studio) saw
I had been slightly perturbed , and asked how I was. I told
him the story, and he was rather shocked and surprised and
shook his head in disbelief, he
gave me a pound and told me to get a hot chocolate(a hot
drink from the vending machine was 50p), and gave me a hug
and comforted me and told
me to forget it and get on with my painting, which he said
may turn out to be a masterpiece if I work hard on it. He
told me as well use the pound to buy someone else in the room who is working already a hot
drink. I went in the next room and asked who wanted a drink,
someone asked for a tea, so
I took note of there request and went downstairs to the
vending machine. Put the pound in. Ordered my hot chocolate,
then the tea, the machine

processed. A hot chocolate came out, then a cup of coffee
instead of the tea and had 50p still remaining on the
screen, so I ordered another hot
chocolate , and 10p came out as change.. This was rather
odd, because the hot chocolate and the coffee were 50p
each.. So I came back with the two
hot chocolates and the cup of coffee, gave the chap who
asked for the tea the coffee apologising that the machine
was odd, and gave another a hot
chocolate, and I had a hot chocolate. I gave Derek the 10p
change saying thank you here is 10p change for your good
karma and told him about
the machine. Then he said, well thank you for the good deed,
from this I have a present for you, I said no need and thank
you I appreciate the hot
chocolate, he laughed, and gave me two blank pre-setup
canvases. I was overjoyed and thanked him.
As you know worked on the sky of this painting , and the art
studio closed at 4pm and decided to revisit the job centre
to get some job application
print out slips on the machines. I prefer using the machines
than there actual website since the technique I have selects
more variety jobs and job
faculties in a single search where when searching online
through there website, you allowed only three
faculties/types per search which is time
consuming and irritating and annoying.
Went in , plonked the painting which was still wet from the
medium blender with the Acrylic paint I had been using, with
its easel on top of the job
search machine, with the two gift canvases on the side, and
began my job search. My iPod was playing in my ears, and i
jumped while I felt a tap on
my shoulder, as I never expected it. It was a lady, and I
looked at her and pulled my ear phones out of my earsies and
she told me she apologises for
the thing that happened earlier in the day and how the chap
disapproved and had a a lack of respect for my art and my
being. I thanked her and
smiled, and said ,no problem , and thank you. Put my
earphones back in and continued with my search. I jumped
again, as I felt a harder more
aggressive tap on my back, pulled my earphones out and saw
that chap again with a different lady. and smiled. However
not expecting the apologetic
approach by the previous lady but he started to go off at
me.
He told me to cover the painting, as he told me he finds it
offensive and could offend other people and there is
children and so on. I told him what
should be the problem, I do not offend anyone. I have done
nothing wrong, this is the natural biology of the human form
and it is art, and people see
art like this in art museums. He said it isn't appropriate
for the job centre. I told him how can it be inappropriate
if it is my work and very much part of
my being ? I would say it would be fair for you to come out
at me if I walked in the job centre completely naked or with
a bomb, and that the paint is
wet and cannot be covered. This artwork was compiled on the
basis of love and compassion and tenderness, not aggression
and hate which are the
offensive things that exist in society unfortunately..
A few people started to crowed around and support me , he
was trying to dismiss them and said I had been disturbing
the peace. I had been calm and
talking in a gentle manner, no matter how much the fear and
adrenaline had been rushing through my blood stream,
meditating at the same time , using
the fear to be humble rather than bold and loud. He said it
offends certain religious people in the centre. Well I told
him, that it offends me to aggressively come. I replied him back how can I disturb the
peace when you created the drama in the first place because
of the ignorant programming
society put in one's mind. then again it offends me to come
to me aggressively and conform me to something against my
consciousness which is rather
high level if you do not understand, I am sorry, I cannot be
a hypocrite to my own consciousness and being. I do not see
why you find the design of
the human form without clothing offensive, when it had been
made from Love, compassion and tenderness, with careful
precision, even when it isn't
perfect but good, excuse me I would like to finish what I
came here for and go home. he responded that I could not and
that I am now trespassing the
job centre. I responded, how could I trespass, if I have
every right like everyone in this building regardless of
there origins and beliefs ?
Dont you think
it is unfair that one set of beliefs do not respect the
other set of beliefs and ways of life and enforce the other
to comply ?
He responded, that's it , I am calling the police. I
responded, do call the police, they would see I am doing
nothing wrong, and in fact came in minding
my own business, I don't complain at the Islamic people with
there head coverings, do I ? That is it I am not arguing or
debating this (some security
guards began to clutter around me) you have two choices, to
leave and look for work using this number, gave me the
number) or come without the
painting. I responded that is not a fair choice, I am just
here using the machines, and secondly the number is not free
on my mobile network, and the
land line phone isn't always available, and I am working and
busy most of the time and the current method I use for job
searching is the most reliable
solution I have and discovered for myself personally to fit
around the time in my life. I have every right to be hear
like that Muslim over there, you are
politically incorrect, and the police would get upset with
you for wasting there time, where they should be doing
relevant work than having to deal
with this ridiculous situation. resulted from the narrow
minded perception of the painting. If I came in here
verbally offending everyone, creating a
scene on my behalf, I would consider it fair, but what you
doing here is an act of discrimination as well as an act of
emotional abuse threatening me
with the police when I have done nothing wrong. So he went
and dialled the police to arrest me... while he was at it
put my earphones, done what I
had to do and walked out. I was shaking in shock.
I don't know if the police came or not. On the way home I
remembered I had a meeting to attend with the LGBT of the
older generation, but before
that I had found an old lady in the distance who had passed
out and people had been standing around her staring, not
doing a thing . She had been
sitting on the chair, and somehow fainted or dizzy and just
fell. I quickly ran to see how she was and found that she
may have cracked her skull and
blood was pouring down the pavement. One of the people
decided to help by phoning the ambulance, and then I went to
find the nearest shop if they
had a pillow for her. She could not get up, it seemed she
may have had a stroke and lost movement on one side of her
body. I went in the shop , and
showed them through the window what was happening and that I
need a pillow for the old lady. They had no pillows but a
soft towel , which I took
with me and put it under the lady's head. the lady was
looking at me and under her breath thanked and pointed at me
and said I was glowing. the
children around in the area who had been staring and
watching the incident as if it was a show on TV were
calling me a freak, there words were
numb against to what I had experienced today, and the first
priority was that the lady would be picked up by the
Ambulance. The ambulance came ,
and was rather quick than the police that were called at the
job centre.
I then went to the LGBT meeting, shared my story, they said I
should put it in the newspapers, I am feeling to just let it
die, and just share it on-line , as
the media can get your story wrong and change it. So what do
you think, do you think I should go to the newspapers with
it or not ?
I am just very tired and down and under the shock still, so
I am going to tidy up, watch a movie and go to bed, as i am
working again tomorrow
morning.
Much Love and huggles
Yup it has been quite a day...
