'Our little secret' , by Mish Mash on Jan 8, 2009 22:16:06 GMT 1, Another darker piece I'd love to get comments on. Didn't know what to call it but thought this title might get people looking. Sorry about the duff Cam Phone picture, will get better pic's when i do it on a canvas.
Cheers for looking (god I think I'm on eBay :-)

'Our little secret' , by UpFest on Jan 9, 2009 1:58:12 GMT 1, Yeah agree... Strong image, title just a bit to dark for me.... Something like 'Goodbye' (as in father saying goodbye to his kids for the last time would have sat better with me)...

But that would change the entire meaning of the guys work. I just hope its not something from his own experience. It sent a shiver down me for sure.

'Our little secret' , by bmjt on Jan 9, 2009 2:23:02 GMT 1, Yeah, it's not really the kind of topic I would want anywhere near my art, at least in not such a blunt and lucid form, but if you feel strongly about it, who am I to stop you.

'Our little secret' , by Joseph Loughborough on Jan 9, 2009 2:57:25 GMT 1, The fact that this is such an 'Edgy' subject,i believe gives it an alternative value as art! not just aesthetic.I admire mish mash for confronting this topic.How would we socially and artistically progress if we always swept the subjects we would rather not have to deal with aside!

'Our little secret' , by cricket on Jan 9, 2009 5:37:59 GMT 1, yea, actually I think its great because.. my initial response to this piece was comforting and nostalgic.. (and yet, VERY unfamiliar to my actual upbringing).. and then equally, this was able to totally creep me out and leave a bad taste in my mouth.. and opened a whole dialog of matters more often reflected on in silence.. thats what I like about some of the less detailed images

'Our little secret' , by Mish Mash on Jan 9, 2009 14:09:37 GMT 1, Thank you for your comments one & all. I didn't and still don't know what to call the piece. I only gave it that title for the sake of posting really. I did want to leave it to the viewer which way to take the image. Nice parent or Bad Man? Everything looks scary at night!
Nice idea for the title TopBoy ;-)

The child becoming a man, leaving childish things behind and stepping into the light. I like it's simplicity and it doesn't hurt to be controversial, thought provoking or to challenge boundaries.
