   An interesting pair of paintings – what prompted them? I only ask because I was just the other day thinking about male fertility figures – those homunculi with huge phalluses.

   The pursuit of greatly exaggerated this and that, and all the photos and art thereof, and celebrity cults, and status surgeries, and the internet reliably disseminating it all with great vigor. When viewed from a couple thousand years’ distance it’s viewed as to do with peculiar fertility rites. But I doubt most people who follow links from sites like Boingboing to the latest in cheesecake are thinking, “Fertility figures.”

   So, I thought it would be interesting to do a series of fertility figures.

   And though these are only 20 by 30 inches I was thinking what an impression a set of breasts would make enlarged to near filling a wall. But 20 by 30 is a fairly respectable size for now.
