Jesse joshua watson's brain on display. Wednesday, May 30, 2012. Ghosts of Pillars Past. Just as sure as the tide comes in,. Out it also goes. And us with it. We dance in the light. Wednesday, May 23, 2012. I hit the patch of sand and was jolted off my board, off the sidewalk, and into oncoming traffic. I had a clear view of the axle of the truck approaching. And then, instantly, I was back on the sidewalk. Did this even happen? I gotta stick with yes. Yes it did. What if I died back then? Been done, eh?

Jesse joshua watson's brain on display. Wednesday, November 20, 2013. I want to celebrate the man with the words and the wisdom in my next body of work. Paint images of him, and also maybe some painting replicating his drawings and then improvising upon. That sounds like it would be cool to try. Any suggestions for other bodies of work? I saw one of my Malcolm X paintings recently and it made me want to get to work on a bunch of portraits of fascinating figures throughout our history. HOPE FOR HAITI book.

Jesse joshua watson's brain on display. Tuesday, July 22, 2014. The exchange of energy between a painter and the viewers of the art is almost nothing. At least on the surface - the immediate physical connection. Often the painter never meets the viewer. Though, in truth the painter acts as shaman of sorts, imbibing energy into the piece of art that will hang on a wall long after the painter is dead and still give off that energy.
