Viva La Amanda Visell!

Put your head close to my heart, never to part, baby of mine...

“Baby Mine” by Amanda Visell

Amanda Visell’s artwork never fails to make my cold, blackened heart swell up with silent tears of beatific ecstasy. I’ve always felt that Visell was somehow channeling the spirit of the late, great, and sainted Mary Blair (avert your eyes, do not stare directly into the light), but this? Had me blubbering uncontrollably like someone stole my lunch money, punched my three-legged dog in the gut, and then fed crack to my space-mutie baby.

Thanks, Drawn, for pointing me to her new blog and getting slobber and snot all over my keyboard. (And I mean that in the nicest possible way.)

    This part of Dumbo made me cry :(

    I still have “Baby Mine” performed by Bonnie Raitt on my computer. God, it’s so beautiful.
