Ismail
24"x36"
Acrylic

As the Paint Brush whispers his name the walls scream for his attention. The Love affair the three of them shared was starting to becoming a distant memory. The thing that they have yet to discover is that he has been carrying on an affair. The endless nights they use to make magic together are the memories that decorate his past. He tells himself all the time that this affair he's carrying on has brought him joy and wealth of the pocket. It makes him smile from the face and not the heart like his previous lovers. He misses them and dreams all the time of holding that beautiful tall slender brush and the rush his body gets when colours collide... He must make a date with his old lovers tonight and bring himself back to life.. Hoping that they missed him and longed for him in the same manner.
His lovers eagerly accept the invitation and promise he wont be sorry. No words are exchanged as the wall anticipates the combined touch of the soft silky brush. Jerome's heart hasn't beated this fast in months. The wall lets out a cry and the brush moans..Tonight they have again made a love child...Hopefully this one makes it to see the light of day so his beauty can be shared with the masses......
