People struggle to appreciate their sexuality, let alone their actual bodies.
Have you ever wondered why its socially acceptable for a man to walk around with his shirt off, whereas a woman would be charged with 'revealing herself'?
During the summer, Helen and I visited Venice beach only to learn that the day before had been a protest against women being forced to wear t-shirts. There had been hundreds of women topless with signs just 24 hours before.
Helen and I were really disappointed.

Here a woman's beauty is starkly contrasted to
the harsh reality of snakes and snails and puppy dog
tails. Curved chin and fading breasts, only to be
brought back to life by the thin legs of a spider.
Ask:
Why am I afraid of myself?
Answer:
Because the world makes me afraid.
All these paintings are done on planks of wood.
Its very interesting, and the effect is so beautiful.
