thinking about Judas kiss, and how many times in my life i've been hugged and held and praised right before the axe fell on some sort of thing. Now i can see it coming. It just makes me love allegory even more that I can feel these old themes coming through. I've always liked allegorical paintings and films. I like tarot cards. I heard that we all go through the behaviours of all the tarot cards in life. Anyway, my two cents is painting isn't dead and allegory is alive and well.
