This week’s Illustration Friday<\/a> topic is ‘Run’.<\/p>\n

I haven’t been painting for a little while, cos I’ve been on a hectic writing deadline for a piece of corporate video I was asked to script-doctor in a rush. It turned out to be WAY more than script doctoring. And it’s still not over. Sheeeeesh.<\/p>\n

I painted this one a little more than a month ago, when ‘S’ and I were first breaking up. This was in the lull that we were calling ‘a break’.<\/p>\n

I was feeling terrible at the time, and so i made this pessimistic painting of a dude fleeing from warmth and love, at the same time avoiding being burnt alive. Three guesses who the dude is.<\/p>\n

Since then, I’ve decided that part of what i want in the world is the possibility of me being increasingly open to RECEIVING love from a love- and life-partner. (In the past, I’ve been a bit too much of a love-giver, which has left my love-partners feeling that I’m not able to receive anything from them. I want this to shift. I want a partnership.)<\/p>\n

Before I say cheers for the week, please go to the DIGG site and vote<\/a> for my article trying to pressure Flickr into relaxing their absurd policy of making artists invisible to searches on the site. <\/p>\n

With enough DIGG<\/a> votes, the story will make it to the attention of someone in command at Flickr, and maybe we’ll see some rational action from them. Thanks!<\/p>\n

This painting was made using ArtRage 2.11<\/a> on my Toshiba Tecra M4 tablet pc.
