Okay besides the fact that I been working on his diet the longest I have ever been on a diet…well not quite…I did stay on Grey sheet OA for 10 years…and I only worked on that Dr Phil Venus for 2…but OMG. Yesterday I got to the studio lifted the Dr Phil Venus off the red leatherette chair only to discover she had gone horribly moldy. Now understand this is the second time this has happened to me. Last summer I did this huge repair job on her washed her down with bleach and painted the effected areas with Kilz to ensure all was dead…but we are talking since then this piece was a solid mass of his books. It was like I had turned books back into a tree. I couldn’t even cut threw it with a saw it was taking forever. So yesterday in a fit of frustration I cut her head off and will take the uneffected side and the cross section of the head to the show for people to see how the scupltures are made. All those hours of work. Sob. Anyhow, those books are gone,…(I forgot to count how many of them I ripped up to make that Venus but I will post that later when I count the book covers.) No one can use them to make themselves feel bad about their bodies or what they put in their mouths again. What a Blow Hole that man is. I was thinking how much The Ulimate Weight Solution sounded like Hilter’s The Final Solution. Let’s shame all the fat people into killing themselves! Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr How’s that working for you?
I know how hard you have worked on this, and I know how I feel when I am making something and it goes wrong, but I cant help smiling at the irony that Dr Phil has gone mouldy. TWICE. Proof he talks rot!
