Description
I think I painted this in 1978. Duh, I signed it and dated it: 1978? I would have been 25 when I painted this! I guess I was Emo before Emo was! No that's not supposed to be Jimmy Hendrix, He's Jimmy Emo, And no that's not his realname! He's a friend who posed for me during that time of life! And I didn't poke him in the eye and make him bleed! Very 70's with the Fro and all! I don't think he was aware of what I was going to do to his Portrait, Dripping Blood and Heart of Africa! It's a mirrow image, how else would his African Heart be on his right side, and it's way too high up! That's what Great about being an artist,No one has thier heart on thier shoulder, it just seemed to fit, compositionally! If you're out there, Jimmy I'd like to hear from you!

Hi Laura,
My Grandfather was Scicialian, from outside of Palermo, a small village/town called Chizo! I never knew him as he passed away one year before I was born! I love your Valentines painting! I tried to save it to my favorites but was unsuccessful. I'd like to keep in touch and also add you to my friends?/ contacts? My son, Jeremie Garacci, informed me of this site and is patiently working with me, so that I may become a Deviantart Computer wizzard! He wasn't available tonight, but I will seek his assistance asap as I do not want to loose contact with you and your most incredible art! My only wish, All artist on DVA and all sites would use thier own names? Why the user Name?
Most people seem to post everything about themselves on MySpace? Not me, I don't want the world to know every little detail of my life! With one exception! through my art/photography/ and poetry! My sons is Jeremie1Ink@deviantart.com Maybe you can check him out!
Any meaning to O-Trilli-O? I know just enough Italian, French, and Spanish to be totally confused!
Sincerely,
Benedetto Garacci,
