The truth is a symbol, and symbols are the truth. It is the best to grasp symbols the way they are. There's no logic or facts, no pig's belly button or ant's balls. When people try to use a method other than the truth to follow along the path of understanding, it is like trying to use a sieve to hold water.

I felt really lost in @andyjpizza class about our creative genuineness. And then I felt real sad making my own world. Mix it all was fun and relaxed. But those 🎲 🎲 were killing me. This is a selfportrait.

Holy Shit, Batman: The Essay © 2018 Frederick J. Cowie, Ph.D. My mother was big on “What will the neighbors think?” and “Watch your manners?” and “Behave!” Of course one neighbor was a letch, another was a pervert; manners meant “don’t make me look like a bad mother” and “behave” meant do what the priests and nuns said. Too bad at home I wasn’t taught to be honest and straightforward; to be truly nice let others alone; and to honor and respect the humanity of other humans, and my own. Hell no! For me and my mother it was all sign-of-the-cross and sin; and salvation and heaven-and-hell; kneel-down and say-your-prayers; and salute-the-flag and join-the-war. So now I paint a lot of things that are symbolic and iconographic in what is presumptuously called “western civilization,” an amalgam of Greco-Roman, Judeo-Christian, Indo-European, and Pre-Germanic/Germanic leftovers. “Why do you paint that?” they ask. I really don’t have two more decades left in my life to train people who ask that question, so I just answer, “Holy Shit, Batman, it sells!” #fredcowie #culturalhistorian #iconography #sumbols #sin #manners #meditation #relaxation #deepbreathing #exercise #yoga #professionalartist #stressmanagement #lastchancelifecoach #helenamontana
