Right now I have this collection of books on my nightstand that I am truly excited about.
Nights at the Circus - Been wanting to check this out forever. Angela Carter is one of my favorite authors.
The Politics of Aesthetics - Very cool outline of the relationships between art and politics and community. "Man is a political animal because he is a literary animal who lets himself be diverted from his 'natural' purpose by the power of words."
The Gothic and The Sublime - These are part of the Documents of Contemporary Art series. I've almost finished reading The Sublime. It's great to have so many writings on the subjects brought together, but the books are composed of excepts, rather than full chapters/essays/articles.

Work In Progress . . . .
A tryptic on three thin pannels of a girl falling over and falling apart. Resembles a film strip.
Part of a series I'm starting on falling. So far, it's just an acrylic background and a drawing on a 18 x 24 inch board. I've been meaning to do this painting forever now, and I'm really happy with where it's going.
What I'm reading:
New Paint!
X-mas present: I've finally decided to upgrade to safer oil paints!
