The Prodigy



5x7 inches, acrylic, collage, colored sand, and epoxy on canvas, 2008, by Jason Robert Bell.

Often times, when left to my own devices I will start with a take on my patron saint Frankenstein's Monster, Back in college we read the book in John Kimsey's Intro to Lit class. Hard to think that a 19 year old could have written such a great book. Anyway Kimsey talked about how the origin for the word Prodigy was another word for Monster. As a kid that was a bit too smart for his own good and did not fit in that has always made sense to me.

You know that dream where you're waiting for the final revelation and coming out of the glowing orange eye of God, is multi-dimension fusion of Andy Warhol, Mickey Mouse, and the Angel of Death, well I had that dream a few days ago and now it is a painting. This and most of my new "metaphysical portraits" will be available for purchase at the Miami Artfair Aqua Wynwood, thur Thomas Robertello Gallery Dec. 3rd to the 6th, 42 NE 25th St., Miami, FL 33137. Any of my countless millionaire fans please check out the work down there and pick up a few.

There reaches a point where you can no longer explain your thinking it becomes beyond words, that other kingdom, the undiscovered country what dreams may come.

Epikaste

The title for this piece comes from another name for Jocasta, can't really explain why I think of Oedipus Rex's Mother/Wife, but the working title for the Piece was Bride of the Fireclown.
