Introducing the cast

Kiki - “Can you just fuck me already?”

There is nothing about this that I like, except perhaps that it shows I am still trying.

What is the meaning of the word "already" for you?

What is the meaning of the word "already" for you?

Don’t be facetious.

“Will you just [insert as appropriate] already” is a colloquial expression, originating in the US, widely used by a generation who are now c. 20 years of age. It appears in the title of my piece in speech marks.

I know perfectly well the grammatical imperfection of the phrase, not least of all as I studied Latin, and have under-graduate and post-graduate degrees in an English language based subject.

Did you feel terribly clever when you wrote your reply? How ridiculous to come onto an art thread and choose to critique the grammatical construction of the title.

Sue - “From behind please”

 

[Jimmy_the_Saint1]

Sue - “Maybe they already have? Or maybe it was only Sion…”

[After a night out, Sue’s husband comes home with some of the guys from his office. He doesn’t know that Sion has been fucking his wife for years, or that a few weeks ago, on the 7th floor of his own office, his wife was in the boardroom entertaining five of his colleagues.]

Claire - Come home soon?

 

[Jimmy_the_Saint1]

Laura - even when she’s on her back she’s the boss

I have re-worked my original, which I was never happy with.

Sue - leaning against a hotel window on the ground floor, watching the world go past, while the world watches her

 

[Jimmy_the_Saint1]

Sue - an awkward moment (in the bedroom, taking a photo of herself to send to her lover, who she is meeting in a few hours, and her husband walks in)

 

[Llehlla]

Claire - a very good night

Wonderful! The different marks, the texture, the dashes of color, the perspective….really dynamic!

Sue - “Just before he bent her over”

I like the bold strokes

Sue - striking a pose as the door opens

Excellent! That quasi-realistic hand and the red smearing are dynamite. Other color dabs are wonderful, too.

Sue - Neon lights in Hong Kong

I really like your style. Bold, confident (at least it looks that way to me) and unique. You gave your own “voice.”

Claire - “Imagine you’re in a hotel room, tied to the bed, blindfolded,” her husband instructed her in a whisper, “and I let another man fuck you. All I tell you is that it is someone you know. As he is fucking you all you can think about is how impossibly big he feels inside you. After a few minutes, as he’s kissing you, he pushes the blindfold off. It’s Sion, the guy from work that you pretend to hate, that you argue with constantly, that you know has slept with your bosses wife, and your bosses girlfriend. Do you want him to stop? By the way, I told him he didn’t need a condom.”

 

[Jimmy_the_Saint1]

Laura - She can show you the way, but the path always leads to hell

 

[Jimmy_the_Saint1]

A self-portrait - obscured and obscure

 

[Jimmy_the_Saint1]

Sue - hopefully his wife doesn’t see this photo she just sent to him

“They still come back to the house, but now they want to pose for me, when all I want is for them to lie down for me. I oblige them and hope they will return the favour.”
