These are some of the ‘Space Fantasy’ series my reclusive artist friend Steve Dodd has sent me over the last year or two. I’ve posted them before but I wanted to see them all together! Most of these paintings are over 30 years old (the first one at the top ‘Space Fantasy #6’ was painted in 1974) and, incredibly, many have never seen the light of day. I’m certain Steve has more deep in the galactic recesses of his studio. I can’t wait to see them.

Olafur Eliasson & Ma Yansong - Feelings are Facts, 2010

Black braids down her back, burnt-out candles, and a sweet-tooth for too much coffee creamer. She flicks out a cigarette at her window, and tells me to hold out my hands. She kisses where my thumb meets my palm, and, just as quickly, hops off the bed and asks if I want anything to drink. I don’t answer in time and she’s gone. She is New York City sidewalk in the rain; still bustling and beautiful, but foggy and cold. Umbrellas up and heads down. She is a Stevie Nicks song at the back of the bar, a rusted wire fence; a garden of forget-me-nots. She’s not anyone’s dream girl, but she’s the one each heart falls hardest for.
