Mathew 5 29

This piece disrupted my day the moment I laid eye on it. ( Ha! Eye! Get it!? O.k. bad joke. Moving on. ) It had messed up my preconceived notion on the quote/unquote "How to's" of critique writing. It also changed my approach on how I was going to write on my own personal journal for that day. Hell it pretty much turned my whole world upside down!

It started on the Sunday of 6-8-2014 while browsing through some of the artwork I had faved. Mr. ShayneOtheDead's piece ( Giger ) was at the forefront of my list at the time and feeling a little adventurous, thought it would be nice to take a road trip ( so to speak ) to his gallery. I figured I'd check out his work, poke around a bit and be on my merry little way. Well things didn't turn out the way I had planned. ( Awww F**k me sideways! ) As I gazed at Mathew 5 29 my A.D.D. went into full tilt! Not to mention ( but I will ) the Artists Requested Critique Box stared back at me! Yanking my will like a fat kid wanting a glazed donut! Taunting my wannabe writer within! Egging me to say something, ANYTHING! ( S**T! )

At this point it was useless. ( S**T! S**T! ) I was trapped! ( S**T! S**T! S**T!) Trapped in the logistics of the phrasing, construction and the approach of the critique. My so called planned little existence of a day was in the proverbial toilet! ( Awww Poo! ) Now usually I find ( in my own way of thinking ) that lowbrow wording is unnecessary for a critique but ( and it's a very big BUT! ) this is no fluff piece! This is hard hitting razors edge stuff and with that being said, I'm gonna call it like I see it! So let's get this party started.

Matthew 5 29 is a horrifically bewitching piece layered with ghastly overtones all the while showcasing skills that pay the bills. The piece shows a well rounded competence and complexity from top to bottom which suggests some schooling may be involved, but if not, well he's just that FN good. The overall theme is rock solid. I see no flaws on how this piece was constructed and or executed. ( As far as hard drafting, shading, coloring, Ect., ect., ect., ) I found the whole setup to be quite masterfully done. Now the main reason this piece rattled my cage is pure and simple. I can relate to it! It has that Rockabilly Psychobilly vibe splashed with the Dia de Muertos ( day of the dead ) style that I absolutely L.O.V.E. love!!! Which brings out 7 distinctive qualities of this piece and for the utmost makes it stand out!

It's a back alley bare knuckle brawl! Peppered with a shotgun blast, in your face attitude! Knocking Ya down and making you cry for mommy! It will make a grown man squeamish and a holy man sin! So when you go to bed at night and you wake up screaming of night terrors! You can bet your soggy Depends Undergarments that it was Mr. ShayneOtheDead who gave you that restless sleep!

( Please keep in mind that this is my third critique but the impression of the piece rings true... )

I equate music with the art that I view. Several Rockabilly/Psychobilly bands fit this piece but while I was viewing Mathew 5 29 a hard rock band was crankin through my head phone's. April Wines ( Roller ) was Demolishing my eardrums and it seemed to embody the slick style of this beautiful piece.

That's how much this piece moved me!

( Side note. ) Bare with me on the punctuation and the misspellings of the critique. I am no writer. I proof read the crap out of all my critique's and still manage to mess them up! Ha! Plus D.A. doesn't allow you to edit the critique after it's submitted. It also doesn't help that I do it all on my cellphone! O SNAP!
