100 Days of Noble Ideas, March 15

Today there are two. And they are both painting ideas.

1. Dad Painting - Dad sitting on a couch in the nursing home. Fat gut rolling forward. NY Giants sweatshirt, very old maybe 1991 - very red, tucked into his pants. With the belt buckle in the back. And his hair is disshevled. And his face is somewhat unshaved. And he has a disgruntled look upon his face.

2. The #1 painting then makes me consider a series of "Nursing home" subject/content paintings.

Idea #2:

"Somersaults in the Sand" - a painting series of a dude with his head stuck perpetually in a downward thrust into sand-mud. Each one is a new event but the motion of the painting is over and over again in similar positions so that there is a level of continuity and unbreakability. Over and over again, head stuk in the mud.

There was an earlier idea from September, inspired by "Moral Law":

Sitting on a ledge between death/injury & safety/life, flicking a cigarette to the side of death
