Blue Flag



From August 10 2006: Drawing this morning, in copyshop. Youngish woman, small top, narrow but rounded figure… Leans back, massages her arm, then lower part of her back. Feeling of self…taken so for granted. Also—black oversized earphones, narrow wire to bag alongside…

At Moe’s. Late Milton Avery...

Working back into painting begun yesterday. Orange shape with darker rectangle below, partly washed away. Cooler gray painted around. Shape of flag appears, but condensed—made stubby, that is. Like in monster cars, maybe. A kind of (rhetorical) sentimentalization of form itself. Happens with toys all the time. (Chunkier than need be.) Pale blue painted stripes. Patriot? As in phat.
