INACTION PAINTING

1995-6; nondream improv digital picture-poem by Chris Wayan


I used to feel intimidated by jangly, gloomy, sterile modern art, especially the nice expensive ones in certain Civic Museums. Since painting this Inaction Painting, when I see their junk I start giggling "Boy art!" and the guards glare at me and I just go home and paint more like this. Inaction Painting to counter the boys' Action Painting. Just lie back and play with myself... artistically... too.

By the way, that phrase on the upper right, "in like Flynn," was originally quite raunchy. When Erroll Flynn was the top Hollywood action star, it was said that he not only could fuck every woman in America he asked... he already HAD. Already in, like Flynn.

More Clinton than Clinton, and minus the weaseling, too.

A picture-poem by Wayan. Flowers, fairies, cats, naked artists, little flying penises, me as a catgirl painting in the center, and the words: It takes a pussy to dare invent INACTION painting! All those NY artboys wanted action, they cunt get no satisfaction! I'm already in, like Flynn, floating fruit-flower sin. Don't pine, vagine! Grasp your flower of fire. A pussy's work is never undone. Desire desire.
The poem winding through it is hard to read at this resolution. It goes:

It takes a pussy to dare invent
INACTION PAINTING:
those N.Y. artboys wanted action--
they cun't get no satisfaction!

I'm already in, like Flynn--
floating fruit-flower sin.

Don't pine, vagine!
Grasp your flower of fire.
A pussy's work is never undone.
Desire... desire.

SAFETY NOTE FOR ART GRRLS

If you paint your pussy red, or fuck on wet canvases, or play with yourself while painting, DON'T use cadmium paint! It's toxic and absorbs through wet skin. Maybe I should generalize that:

In life, remember this golden rule
so far as you are able:
in love, art, snacking, politics, school,
before you let them in like Flynn,
check the toxicity label!
