Sapphicish Art

Since I don’t know what to blog about, I’ll just include some of the art I did a few years ago. I was unconscious about my sexuality/interest in females at that time, but they definitely embedded subtle lesbian and feminist themes/ideas (at least when I interpret them now – yes, I was pretty gay even thought I didn’t know it myself at that time). Enjoy.

Fruits of Life, 2005, Acrylic on Canvas
Actually I changed a bit of the painting using photoshop (the actual piece is in Canada currently, and my person is in Shanghai, so I can’t modify it physically – I wouldn’t anyway, as it captured my feelings and believes at that time). Originally there were a male and a female toilet-symbol-looking igure in the white space, indicating the different tastes of life that individuals would experience. But now, I rather leave the space empty and leave it to you for your own interpretation.

Materialistic Girls with their Brand Names, 2005, Acrylic on Canvas
At that time I really look down on those girls who carried their tiny Prada, Gucci, Louis Vuitton purses (because they are not rich enough to get bigger bags) around in the school. What’s with the brand names? Do they really bring up your person?

Phoenix I & II, 2003, Paint on Cardstock
Okay, this one was more learning about the silkscreen process. Yet I came with LGBT-themed titles for the two prints – the “lezzie” version (yes, we all love black and grey...) and the “pride” version (no explanation needed really, other than next time put more orange instead of red?).

Life Drawing - Body Study, 2004, Oil Pastel on Construction Paper
What else do I have to say? The female body is meant to be embraced and appreciated.
