Lusting All That Glitters...

...is not gold, is a popular saying.

Although this is certainly true for most, I don't believe that it

applies to the glittering architectural creations of alchemist

Lusting Kisses

You must remember this
A kiss is still a kiss
A sigh is just a sigh
The fundamental things apply
As time goes by



And when two lovers woo
They still say, I love you
On this you can rely
No matter what the future brings
As time goes by


Moonlight and love songs
Never out of date
Hearts full of passion
Jealousy and hate
Woman needs man
And man must have his mate
On this you can deny



It's still the same old story
A fight for love and glory
A case of do or die
The world will always welcome lovers
As time goes by


Moonlight and love songs
Never out of date
Hearts full of passion
Jealousy and hate
Woman needs man
And man must have his mate
On this you can deny

You must remember this
A kiss is still a kiss
A sigh is just a sigh
The fundamental things apply
As time goes by

Lusting Flesh and Stone

The ancient masculine beauty captured in Barberini's Faun ,




Is displayed today in living flesh,


Beauty transfered through time,


Both in flesh and Barberini's stone.

Lusting Childlike Genius

The art of Dame Elizabeth Frink exhibits a childlike mystique. Although she is better known for her sculpture, I chose her illustrations of Odysseus and his adventures.

Lusting Nature's Diversity

Found

Nature's beauty,
Like jewels,
Of the field,
Of the earth,
Of the water,
Of the sky,
The strange,
In mix with common,

Found.

Lusting Beautiful Cast Glass Sculpture

Cast glass has a unique quality that transcends the boundaries of solid sculpture mediums. The artist must not only deal with what can be seen from a singular surface view, but what is also seen beyond.























The cast glass mastery of Latchezar Boydiev, shown above, is available through Jane Sauer Gallery.

Sculpture below, artist unknown.

Male Nude Number 2__chichan-loves-onigir

I stretch,

Reaching skyward,

Revealing self,

Cascading colors,

Embellished beyond,

The so simply scribed below.







From the artist's comments:

"Continuation of a loose series of male nudes I've been doing lately.
I really like this one. I like the pose, I like the inking, I like the extra-quick coloring." __Titiana S.

I agree! See more here.

To This I'm Strangely Drawn

With pencil,

And paper,

Chalk,

Or charcoal,

Like vintage photos,

But,

By hand and mind,

Made known.

Lusting for a Day at the Beach

Benito Rebolledo Correa _Boys at the Beach

Bronzed and pale,
Strew like driftwood,
Littering sand,
Seagulls gliding,
The scent of Coppertone,
Watery thunder mixing laughter and roar.
