What Is On Your Creative Side?

I play the guitar and sing. Had a Farang band in Pattaya a couple of years ago that even made it into the Blues Factory (i.e. onto the stage...).

After that we hi-jacked beer bars around town and did our one hour gigs.

Nowadays, raro's remarkable rockshows (All Along The Watchtower and Rocking in the Freeworld) are a sought-after events in Soi 2.... :o

Will post a picture from our heydays later....got to find them first.

That is cool, man. Did you jam or were you a cover band? Any genre you liked to stay in?

From the ages of 7-13 I was dragged to piano lessons. Although it can be handy to read music very occasionally I'm not sure how I benefited from it.

I'm good at wound dressings & vaccines - does that count? Nah, thought not! :D

Very impressed by my fellow Bedlamites & their artistic qualities! Well done all of you! Love your paintings, Jet :o

welllllll....a hypodermic syringe is almost like a tatoo needle....you could classify yourself as a minimalist tatoo artist!!!!!

We could have a bedlam Bebop! CVic can write the purgatorial play in the padded cell, Raro and TDSK can do the music, Bebop, Grover, Chownah...what do you want to do? NR? I would like to make the rainbow-coloured popcorn. NR, what's the new ava look? Lovely. I know that painting...where is it, National Gallery or Tate? I do miss your mask, tho...

Grsffiti Art, lots of it. Lots of DJing throughout the 80s and 90s. Now I tend to sing nursery rhymes to my Son....

It's La Belle Dame Sans Merci by Henry Maynell Rheam. There are lots of paintings by Pre Raphaelite artists inspired by that poem, but my personal faves are this one (I like the ghosts which just come out as a blue fuzz on the av - too small!) and the Dicksee one.

FYI, this is the Keats poem that inspired the paintings:

La Belle Dame Sans Merci

O what can ail thee, knight-at-arms!

So haggard and so woe-begone?

The squirrel’s granary is full,

And the harvest’s done.

III.

I see a lily on thy brow

With anguish moist and fever dew,

And on thy cheeks a fading rose

Fast withereth too.

IV.

I met a lady in the meads,

Full beautiful—a faery’s child,

Her hair was long, her foot was light,

And her eyes were wild.

V.

I made a garland for her head,

And bracelets too, and fragrant zone;

She look’d at me as she did love,

And made sweet moan.

VI.

I set her on my pacing steed,

And nothing else saw all day long,

For sidelong would she bend, and sing

A faery’s song.

VII.

She found me roots of relish sweet,

And honey wild, and manna dew,

And sure in language strange she said—

“I love thee true.”

VIII.

She took me to her elfin grot,

And there she wept, and sigh’d fill sore,

And there I shut her wild wild eyes

With kisses four.

IX.

And there she lulled me asleep,

And there I dream’d—Ah! woe betide!

The latest dream I ever dream’d

On the cold hill’s side.

X.

I saw pale kings and princes too,

Pale warriors, death-pale were they all;

They cried—“La Belle Dame sans Merci

Hath thee in thrall!”

XI.

I saw their starved lips in the gloam,

With horrid warning gaped wide,

And I awoke and found me here,

On the cold hill’s side.

XII.

And this is why I sojourn here,

Alone and palely loitering,

Though the sedge is wither’d from the lake,

And no birds sing.

Nope, I'm not creative at all, but I really appreciate others' efforts! :o

We could have a bedlam Bebop! CVic can write the purgatorial play in the padded cell, Raro and TDSK can do the music, Bebop, Grover, Chownah...what do you want to do? NR? I would like to make the rainbow-coloured popcorn. NR, what's the new ava look? Lovely. I know that painting...where is it, National Gallery or Tate? I do miss your mask, tho...

I'm a farmer....when the shit gets deep enough I'll do my best to plow it under and plant the seeds for the next generation.

Aerate, Chownah. I think it's allowed to contribute to a lauditorial now and then, especially when it's worthy.

If you give me a gorilla suit, I will run amok terrorizing the inmates, throwing small objects from one end of the cafeteria to the other.

Bebop, if you please:

I just can't seem to stop being creative....it seems to have taken over my life...I eat, sleep, breathe, and sweat creation.....does this make me a creationist? (shudder)

Chownah

:D :D I think tv.com members the world over just Shuddered at the thought.

What do I get to do Jet?

Can I make moonshine whisky and sing the blues down by the river among the fields of gold?

Bebop, if you please:

Not sure she understood correctly. Somebody avaialable to translate to Canadian?

:o Jet, will you illustrate my Post apocolyptic Human Biography?

I know a great beach I used to love to write on on Koh Chang, which one of your paintings reminds me of.

I think we need a civilised bedlam bash coz it would be great to have it at Kan Win's, so no throwing projectiles across the cafeteria Grover and no fodder fights. Kayo, where's you bleeding avatar? I can't pick you outta the crowd anymore and I almost mistook you for Chownah. Why do some folks always need to change their <deleted> avies? Inferiority complex? Personality disorder? Schizo? Bebop, I forgive, because he is searching for enlightenment. Why can't you all be like Lannare, CVic and Kan Win, steady and true. Since Robski commissioned my portrait, I see no reason to change it, unless the Botox wears off and the paint starts to sag.

Dunno, and Chownah is on a rampage these days. Art burning, disfigurement, creationism. What? what, what, what, what? Maybe that could be Beddies theme song: What are you? Raro, words?

Awesome, Kawboy!

Oh, and thanks for changing the subject, BTW.

You are welcome and btw - I really like your artwork. I took painting classes and never found a media that suited me. I was much better at drawing with graphite or charcoal. My art teacher used to dispair over anything I did in oils, acrylic, or water colours. I just don't have the knack for it. Do you still paint?

I will try to remember to bring in some photos I have of tattoos I did.
