NEWD!TY



(pottery by Gary Rith)





So like I say, in 8th grade Mr Bull and Mr Groves were asking me what I wanted to do when I grew up and I said "ARTIST!" and Mr Bull sez "Cause he wants to look at nekkid ladies all day!".
You never forget stuff like that, esp. when it IS true and when it BECOMES true.
So, in the spirit of the French painter Bougereau, here is a nekkid vase. I am thinking that YES, little dishes or bowls with wide rims for them to cavort upon would be good too.....

When I see those nekkid peoples, I want to yell 'HANG ON!'. :)

A bunch of yellow daisies would look really nice in that vase, with those nekkid folks looking up at them. :)

The, um, lady is not as anatomically, um, correct as she could be, BUT the dude? At the last second, um, I made the tip of his winkle pink......

"Pottery Porn"

Jay's comment cracked me up!

Is it weird to be jealous that your nekkid lady has bigger ta-tas than I do?

Ah! Verismo! Love it. And I've always loved that darling little boy relieving himself, I think I first saw him pictured in a National Geographic. Very educational! Couldn't wait to see the actual fountain in Belgium. But leave it to you to give us verismo with a wink!

Miss Heather said...

And I think you should have spelled it "Newtitty".... in honor of Newt.... and the nice titty's you made. :)

Okay, I'm dirty...

Mr. Bull is aptly named... !
The little dishes comment at the end reminded me of the soup bowl scene in La Cage Au Folles.

Fun stuff, as always!
