I noticed this passage while reading 'Metaphysical Meanderings' or the 'Herr Manny altar of Self Love'... as it should be called.
"I begin with the inspiration and proceed to make a quick sketch with charcoal or extra black pencil. The basic form is then transfered in very rough outline onto canvas. From this point absolutely anything can happen as the artist becomes the means and his tools become the medium by which more than mere reproduction takes place."
"More than reproduction takes place" sounds like a porn flick to me.
Personally I love this blog. Basically it's the one where Manny tells the world what a swell guy he is and how good he is at everything. And unbelievably, it's all done with a straight face.
Well here's to the pompous old fraud. After all, without people like him around what would the rest of us laugh at :-)))
They say BNP membership is soaring in the past few days. I wonder what he thinks of that.

ReplyDeleteWhat makes me laugh is that he has one of his horrid paintings of David on the wall of the 'retreat'. He really can't get enough of the guy.
ReplyDeleteRBM books; yes beware of middlemen who just place an order to a third party. I know someone who wanted a copy of the bishops book, but also wanted to keep their private address out of his hands. They ordered through a middleman like RBM. Two weeks later - the book came in the post - with the bishops return address on it!
ReplyDeleteWell Anon, thanks for the warning. you obviously can't be too careful, there's plenty of nutters out there...... talking of who, I honestly don't think anyones going to lose any sleep over Seans address getting out. When you consider the vast amount of highly personal information (including addresses) Sean publishes, I'm sure the same happening to him will just be seen as karma in those peoples eyes.
