The first entry in this blog includes a giant yellow ocre unfinished portrait of Hillary Clinton in the pose of St. Theresa in Ecstasy in an unusual studio in Paris and my explanation for abandoning ship. I saw one of the girls who worked in that studio with me and we listened to "G" (aka Goldfrapp's album Supernature) and I drew "the Hillary" from memory. After slaving away at her hyper-realistic pores for 9 months I remembered her quite well. During the drawing I became visibly upset. Then I drew the garden there from memory. I still feel a bit "traumatized" (as Sergio the master of the infamous Territory would often say).
