‚ just a simple light hearted play on the saying... on cloud nine.. this is a sexually..straight.. male version of this.. heaveny place‚ ha ha ha! thats ok? and its ok to refer to male sexuallity without it having to be... sexist or degrading towards females‚ just because a straight male artist does a painting about straight male sexuallity in a humorous sense‚ it does not mean the artist is necessarily shallow‚ out of date‚ politically incorrect‚ niave towards both genders and anyone somewhere inbetween????‚ the artist may just be celebrating in a lighthearted way‚ a perfectly natural instinct that he can relate to thru is own experiences? also‚ it must be remembered that there are millions of women that are quite happy that the world has many‚ so called‚ straight males‚ correct? i have gay and lesbian artist friends that ive exhibited with quite a few times over the years but ive got no interest‚ desires or experience to do artworks‚ humorous or not‚ in sexual preference areas that i know nothing about from a personal level ok? thanks.. steve.. nuthouse arthouse (C)
