"You might have some issues" More Rorschach paintings 2012-2013

Once I was asked to bring my portfolio to someone for a review and he said to me"you might have some issues with sex" Though I wouldn't call it an "issue" so much as a deep seeded and not entirely unwelcome preoccupation. So what...I like to paint giant veiny ones and boobies. Lots of boobies! Any black panel painting of mine does not begin with sketches but instead is created through a stream of consciousness that I can only compare to what someone would see in an instant upon viewing a Rorschach inkblot. In essence I am my own therapist. And not a very good one, I'd say. I might have stopped myself about 40 veiny ones ago if I took my patient's mental health seriously at all! Which I clearly don't......

Here is a collection of Rorschach paintings from end of 2012 up until now.
