Role Play or Reality?

From my Second Life Profile: Pick #9: Role Play or Reality?

Somebody was confused by my politeness. Am I a Dom or a Sub? Perhaps nothing more than a passionate man enjoying life and all that it has to offer.

I seize you by the hair. Warm breath. Soft lips. Moist tongue. Can I seize you by the imagination?

We strive for a connection, mental, literary, and erotic. It can be corporeal, hopefully mental and emotional, and it can even extend to the spiritual. Long after you've turned off your computer, when you sit alone in the dark and contemplate the day, you will think of me, the softness of my voice, the gentleness of my touch, and the scent of my presence. Your imagination may soar, and your hand may wander, but you will think of me.

It is the final proof of my dominance that I need not exist in order to dominate you.

Sometimes, my desire for you overwhelms me.

Game On by Jack Vettriano (b 1951), Scottish painter

Wikipedia: Jack Vettriano
Jack Vettriano, OBE (born Jack Hoggan, 17 November 1951), is a Scottish painter. His 1992 painting The Singing Butler became a best-selling image in Britain.

Criticism
According to The Daily Telegraph he has been described as the Jeffrey Archer of the art world, a purveyor of "badly conceived soft porn", and a painter of "dim erotica". According to Vanity Fair, critics say Jack Vettriano paints brainless erotica. Sandy Moffat, head of drawing and painting at Glasgow School of Art, said: "He can’t paint, he just colours in." The Guardian's art critic Jonathan Jones, described Vettriano’s paintings as a group as "brainless" and said Vettriano "is not even an artist." Richard Calvocoressi, when director of the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art, said: "I’d be more than happy to say that we think him an indifferent painter and that he is very low down our list of priorities (whether or not we can afford his work, which at the moment we obviously can’t). His ‘popularity’ rests on cheap commercial reproductions of his paintings."

In 2013 in The Guardian, art critic Jonathan Jones wrote: "Vettriano fixes on fetishistic, stylish objects and paints them with a slick, empty panache" and "The world of Jack Vettriano is a crass male fantasy that might have come straight out of Money by Martin Amis".

In The Scotsman George Kerevan wrote "He suffers all the same criticisms of the early French Impressionists: mere wallpaper, too simplistic in execution and subject, too obviously erotic." Alice Jones wrote in The Independent that Vettriano has been labelled a chauvinist whose "women are sexual objects, frequently half naked and vulnerable, always in stockings and stilettos." Regarding the criticism, sculptor David Mach has said: "If he was a fashion designer Jack would be right up there. It’s all just art world snobbery. Anyway, who cares, he probably makes more money than Damien Hirst anyway."
