I'm now Contemplating life, over a hot bowl of primordial soup... my mindful mentor stimulates my thoughts as always the pleasure of oyster to be mixed in with the pain of hot chilies ? no? green Noodles if stirred stirred together with chopsticks or spoon in my hand. Looking at the small, colours, taste of plant, I wonder at the confused mix and asked, 'the primordial soup must have been quite a challenge for you in this colourless tasteless inferior world' - to make the rich flavor in an art form, to look so nurturing and inviting..Ah i am no more, i need no more of this Soup, i'm Satisfied.
I could imagine this in a bowl though looks actually tasty. great artwork here.

Thank you. I wonder if you noticed the sperm and the egg?
My concept was that the forms represented various bacteria and viruses intermingling and mutating and in the soup there was a sperm who found an egg and created a higher life form out of the chaos. I've always been fascinated by the idea that millions of years ago there was only primitive life swimming around in a hot pool of nutrients and life as we know it evolved from that stew. As George Gershwin wrote "The things that you're liable to read in the Bible, it ain't necessarily so."

Primordial soup vs spontaneous creation.
Man was made from dirt and woman was made fom the rib of man, according to Genesis.
I'll go for primordial soup.
Love my Bronski Beat. So gay!

Yes indeed, primordial soup ! one First dish please !
Ah yes, You know, Their were a lot of bands back in the 80's that were gay ! i often wonder about the struggles they had back then? i mean times have changed today, but back then, it must have been an uphill struggle !!
Now saying that, however Jimmy from Bronski beat was in a band called the communards and they did some not bad synth pop music.

Maybe in the world of rock and punk, those artists lived in a kind of a bubble, insulated from the homophobic attitude of the great unwashed. I am still in the closet because of the riff raff who would never understand. Seems like things are changing, but only slightly. The media and the government are trying to normalize homosexuality, but there is going to be push back against the indoctrination.

You maybe right about that Wayne but I've come to realise, the most homophobic people are usually closet Homosexuals, denying there feelings and a way to vent their denial is to attack the very people they would like to be but haven't got the balls to ''come out''..if i'm making much sense with my fuzzy head..i got nothing against gay people, takes all sorts to make a world. Systems are set up to control and manipulate everyone onto either, ''getting along and following the herd'' or being, ''singled out because, you're, odd, queer, strange'' it's as bad as Rich and poor, Black and White. it's fabricated nonsense.

Suppoedly. 3% of the poulation is gay, and half of them are women. What percentage of the 97% are in the closet? No, as Dorothy Parker once said "Heterosexuality isn't normal, it's just common." What is gay? If a man has sex wtth a wpman, but thinks about a man, is he gay? If a man has sex with a man and thinks about a woman, is he gay? If a man hasn't had sex, but fsntazies about a man. is he he gay? The mind reels. IDGAF who someone sleeps with, as long as they're happy.

Ah resting but can't sleep....well agreed, quite frankly, if 2 people are happy together and they're of the same sex, then who really cares? live and let live not live and let die...oh god, wait i must be ill, i just used a Wings lyrics,,i'm out....

You didn't get my meaning did you? yes i noticed the Sperm and the egg...i referred to it but worded it different but means the same..i think.... the Oyster is the Aphrodisiac, stimulates sexual desire, the start of conception, the pleasure and Pain of love like red hot chillies,..etc..etc..read my comment more closely, you'll find conception in there, the beginning somewhere. ''i need no more soup i'm Satisfied'' all Metaphors in one tern or another.

You're right, and I saved the comment to read again. I blame the pot.
Sometimes reading your words is like reading Sylvia Plath's poetry. You tend to use metaphors (like the Oyster, love it) and I fail to pick up on the message. For Sylvia, the words egg, moon and blood were metaphors for other things.
I just thought you saw the painting as soup. Now that you mentioned it, spinach noodles, cut green beans, tomato broth, add a couple of gametes, and voila! The first course is served.

A metaphorical Soup, yes indeed.

Resist that temptation!
I've had to tell everyone not to send anything here because the corrupt postal workers steal anything that comes from the US.
I do have 2 canvases and a full set of oils that I've never opened, and a package of bristle brushes that are also not opened. I guess I'm a dedicated acrylic and paper guy.

Why you old stick-in-the-mud. EXPAND!

I prefer turtle in the mud, thank you.
My entire life is crammed into a 10' x 10' room. That includes a full Casio keyboard, 2 guitars, a refrigerator, a microwave, tables, and 2 bookshelf units. I'm thankful I can paint at all. It's a luxury I give myself as a reward for living the simple life.

Ha ha!
Did you notice the sperm and the egg?

No, gametes in any food is a violation of OSHA food safety regulations.

True, but this painting is of events millions of years ago, when OSHA didn't exist. Gametes in food were all the rage back then.
